Temporary House of Home will explore how our thinking about domestic interiors and design has evolved over the past decades. In a kaleidoscopic overview that is accessible both physically and digitally, the exhibition outlines a series of widely divergent visions of the domestic interior. Subjects such as home (in)security, accommodation for homeless people, the dream home, the haunted house and estate agent-driven makeovers, are each highlighted in their own “room”.
Based on the exhibitions Holland in Vorm (1987) and Do Create by Droog Design and KesselsKramer (2000), the Temporary House also looks at the development of the Dutch design canon. The designer’s current practice is considered, drawing on recent Dutch design history. Finally, Het Nieuwe Instituut’s investigations of the of the interior since 2013 can be seen.
