The exhibition design considers two opposing ideological views, the concepts stemming from the Italian Radical group, Archizoom, and their never-realized model of “No Stop City” with Mies van der Rohe’s addition to the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston. The former was an anti-consumerist collective whereas the latter was an icon of efficiency adopted as the architectural aesthetic of capital corporations. Our design situates the “radical” tables, sofas, chairs, stools, and lamps within a democratic, universalizing, and infinite grid formally inspired by the building within which it sits. By doing so, the specific character of the exhibition itself, the exhibition objects, and the exhibition viewers are amplified, prioritizing the uniqueness of the individuals over the reductions required for categorization.
