What is Home today? Where does domestic space starts and end? When do we feel at home?
Inspired by the seminal exhibition New Domestic Landscape hosted at MOMA which in the 70s sealed the relevance of “Italian design” in the world, we started looking for new and visionary ideas of dynamics, relationships and interactions that design our everyday living spaces.
After an unprecedented period in human history in which 7 billion people have been forced to live their homes in a new and totalizing way, the time has come to redesign the views of the houses that are no longer just private spaces for the unfolding of the personal and family life, but work spaces, meeting places (for both real and virtual meetings), spaces of coexistence with a new idea of family and community. The house is no longer a panorama (landscape) that we have in front of us, but a starting point for our contact with the world (escape).
