HOW WE LIVE: THE PLACE OF HOME IN THE WORLD OF TODAY

Sunday 27 March — 17:00 - 17:45
The Talks — Hall 7

Description

The curators of the upcoming exhibition, At Home, at the Biennale de Saint-Etienne analyze how our domestic spaces are being radically redefined. In a time of lockdowns and restrictions, our living environments have rarely been more vital. With our ever-evolving lifestyles come changes in our private habitats that extend beyond their traditional role as shelters. How do they help define our identities? How do they enhance our well-being? Where does the boundary lie between the public and personal realms? Discover how the design of our homes will shape our lives of the future.
