The Angewandte presents projects for collective forms of living at the Vienna Design Week
The University of Applied Arts Vienna is once again participating in Vienna Design Week this year,
presenting How to be together - three projects for collective forms of living from the Institute of Architecture.
Based on the work of the three studios at the I oA, the selected projects focus on the point at which form becomes politics
and address the question of how physical constructions shape social relationships.
From
installations designed to promote debate and exchange, to furniture that hybridises different functional and formal codes,
to the dissolution of typical domestic configurations, all three studios share a common interest in the social implications
of space and use. The works presented, all developed by students as part of their semester assignments, examine the role of
design in relation to its users: as a framework for freedom and control, as instruction or impetus, or as imagined stage directions
and performance.
