Mitre & Mondays demonstrate what tolerance means to them, both socially and materially. From the back of a Bedford Rascal van, the design studio invites you to grab a coffee at their street-side elbow bar, built to highlight the 'Tolerance' in our objects, and in ourselves.
In design, we must remember to allow for tolerance. Tolerance is the wiggle room between two things. It's the space inbetween which allows them to work together. The way a cup fits a saucer. Socially, tolerance is the thing that helps us all see eye to eye. As individuals, the things that we can tolerate, and that which we find intolerable becomes the compass with which we navigate the world. For this year's edition of London Design Festival Mitre & Mondays are presenting ‘Cafe Tolerance’, a place for meeting and discussion. They have designed their cafe to reflect this, considering tolerance in every step of the process. The table is held in tension, like the best conversations always are, spilling out of the van and onto the street. It hangs at elbow height, encouraging you to lean in and take notice. They’ll be serving coffee while you enjoy a curated selection of new design offerings from the studio.
