Our enactive architectural art installation The End of Sitting (by RAAAF | Barbara Visser) won an important international prize in the world of interior architecture and industrial design: The Great Indoors Award!
The jury recognized the radical potental of our enactive art installation:
“The award winners display a radical […] approach.” “Although all submissions to the competition are thoughtful and well executed, not all of them push the boundaries and show us new ideas. This project is a prototype and a wonderfully creative attempt to think spatially about future workscapes. [T]he design is not about taste but about the subject being addressed. Will we, in 20 or 50 years, be working while leaning over, lying down or standing up?”
Jury members:
-Deyan Sudjic, director of the Design Museum in London
-Nora Fehlbaum is Co-CEO and Member of the Board of Vitra
-Alexis Georgacopoulos is director of ECAL- Ecole cantonale d’art de Lausanne
-Brendan Cormier, curator Victoria and Albert Museum London
