Description

The way we live is rapidly changing under pressure from multiple forces - financial, environmental, technological, geopolitical.

What we used to call home may not even exist anymore, having transmuted into a financial commodity of which the square meter is the basic unit.

Yet, domesticity and the domestic space ceased long ago to be present in the architectural agenda.

SQM, produced for the 2014 Biennale Interieur in Kortrijk, Belgium, charts the scale of this change using data, fiction, and a critical selection of homes and their interiors - from Osama bin Laden's compound to apartment living in the age of Airbnb.

With original texts by: Rahel Aima, Aristide Antonas, Gabrielle Brainard and Jacob Reidel, Keller Easterling, Ignacio Gonzalez Galan, Joseph Grima, Hilde Heynen, Dan Hill, Sam Jacob, Alexandra Lange, Justin McGuirk, Joanne McNeil, Alessandro Mendini, Jonathan Olivares, Marina Otero Verzier, Beatriz Preciado, Anna Puigjaner, Catharine Rossi, Andreas Ruby, Malkit Shoshan, Bruce Sterling
