We have reused materials from Rotterdam-based reuse facilities, honing the spirit to turn a budgeted design brief into an aetherial, uplifting experience.

However these demands and searches take many forms and are in need of different environments: Holding space, activation space, a space to be critical, to be soft and receptive, to listen and to share with a broad public.

We see architecture and design as means to provide, what is called in the Zwart Manifest, ‘aftercare’ – by highlighting, attempting to ameliorate, or radically undercutting existing inequality and invisibility of that which does not belong to the spatial status quo.

The design intends to provide room to the many voices and bodies encountering and appropriating the Zwart Manifest.

We attempt this by deconstructing the white cube and its orientation devices, as an ongoing project, and by infiltrating it with objects mimicking (while questioning) the material facades of power (the grid, the pedestal, ….). This also implies the ways the used material currently performs in cultural capital, hype, clout, appropriation, resulting in financial capital (for the institution).
