A room is
here
ROOM catalogues the mutants, hybrids, and chimeras that have arisen in response to the recent rapid collapse between home and work. This strange menagerie is depicted in plan drawings submitted by students and practicing architects at Yale and beyond, alongside furniture assemblies that show new workstations. They portray accidental assemblages of domestic and professional life, of productive and reproductive labor, that go beyond contemporary speculations about the relationship between work and domesticity. The exhibition stakes that a critical collection of these new arrangements, made by necessity more than design, are a message from the future of architectural production.
