Converso is pleased to present, The Bureaus of Reconstruction, for your wonder, delight, and edification: works by the Chicago based designer, Norman Teague.

For the contemporary American designer, Norman Teague, everyday black life and domestic space has, historically, remained invisible to the intentional disinterest of the White gaze. The result are narratives of design history with gaps, omissions, cracks, and skips that limp out of step with a shared reality we communally sense are richer, deeper, more plural: in need of Reconstruction.
