Mind Igloo
What if our homes could just pop-up when and wherever we need them? And disappear when not in use? The world imagined in New Order is populated by breathing buildings, celebrating human activity by generating, and relying upon, social energy to stay inflated. The Mind Igloo explores the need to create new social spaces through collective thinking, combining your private digital world with a physical shared experience. Visitors of Mind Igloo are invited to contribute pictures from their smartphones to a communal projection. Are you ready to immerse yourself in a new public intimacy?

DUS architects
DUS architects' manifesto sports the lines: "Do the unthinkable. Build a manifest, write a building". DUS was founded in 2004 by Hedwig Heinsman, Martine de Wit, and Hans Vermeulen. DUS builds ‘public architecture’: architecture that influences the public domain using scale 1:1 models, urban processes, and strategy design. Think anything from temporary interiors to long-term urban transformation trajectories. Visit their website.

New Order
New Order explores a world in which energy has become a fundamental principle of our society. Five consecutive solo shows feature new works by Dutch- and international artists, designers, and architects, each responding to various elements of society - such as politics, economy, health, food and experience - that together combine to outline a complete future world.
