Flexible framework

Das House 2012

The theme of endless transition challenges to actively re-examin basic assumptions about  how space is used and experienced.

The project "Das House" presented by the designers Nipa Doshi and Jonathan Levien,  during the  "Imm Cologne" fair in January, offers a good scenario of  how to make an existing framework more flexible, more dynamic, creating space for improvisation.

Quote “Das Haus is about domestic activity and redefining traditional spaces, structuring the house into functional zones and challenging cliché notions of what is a bedroom, kitchen or bathroom. Every part of the house connects and redefines, intersecting volumes of the kind you might find in industrial buildings to create fragmented spaces. Walls with varying degrees of transparency and frames with mesh-like coverings. A microcosm in which all the spaces are interconnected”
