Gallery Talk: Designing for Singleness

How do we think about designing homes and housing for single people? Whether childless, living apart from a partner, or cohabitating with roommates, singleness takes many spatial forms and is a largely unexplored design question. Join this conversation moderated by Beatriz Colomina with The House Transformed exhibitors Daisy Ames, Paul Lewis, and Verena von Beckerath.

​Light bites and refreshments will be served.

On view at Van Alen Institute through May 22, The House Transformed presents new ideas for domestic architecture. Featuring participants from local and global contexts, the exhibition rejects conventional notions of nuclear family and a “one-size-fits-all” approach to the house. These models and drawings explore alternative concepts for collective living, multigenerational households, and caregiving.
