Ideal House

The 2005 Ideal House exhibition in Cologne exists through a different process of thoughts. A deliberate choice was made to forget a kind of constructional and distributive logic, and to focus instead on making of this project an open, less strict process – somewhere between design and architecture. For this purpose, industrial scaffoldings have been used, partially deformed, dressed in a light skin. The scaffoldings live around the house, defining an ideal space, almost a non-house. The volume is perceived cubical, but the entrance is deformed to welcome.
