RADICAL DOMESTICITY.
NEGATIVITY / ABSENCE/
How can negativity or nothingness be used as a method to unfold new directions?
I set out to explore how negativity or nothingness beyond a philosophical motive can be used as a design strategy. The confrontation with nothingness toys with negativity as
a) absence and
b) a nothingness which produces a new result.
