Design Exchange
April 27 to May 19, 2004
In the context of Digifest 2004: On the move, an event that celebrates the proliferation of digital means in art, design, architecture, and media, what does being ‘on the move’ imply for the conception and building of home? The ‘Home: Mobile, Modular and Light’ exhibit component of Digifest 2004 proposes that mobility, physically and conceptually, continues to define new boundaries in domestic architecture and design. Looking at several innovative domestic environments constructed with mobility and modularity in mind, this exhibit further proposes that the rapid development of digital technologies in both design and fabrication have enhanced the realization of modernist dreams of mobile architecture.
