Notes Design

Singletown at the Architectural Biennale in Venice Italy on September 14 through November 23, 2008:

Droog has been invited to participate in the Architectural Biennale in Venice, September 2008 by the curator Aaron Betsky. Teaming up with Dutch communication agency KesselsKramer, we've developed SINGLETOWN.

SINGLETOWN is a unique event focusing on the world of contemporary singles. Its relevance is broad, as all of us are likely to belong to this group at some stage- and more than once. In fact, some sources predict that a third of people in developed countries will be living alone by 2026.

SINGLETOWN is an exhibition that's also a town, an abstract interpretation of a new kind of urban space. Visitors will be able to walk its streets and interact with its products and citizens, and view their homes.

This last part is where we'd like your help: We'd like you to sketch a house for a single of the near future. We have eight very different briefs for eight very different singles.

Check out the complete list after the jump.
