Post-domestic Revolution
This talk will present the most recent issue of PAD journal, titled Post-domestic habitat. Co-edited by Michela Bassanelli and Vera Sacchetti, the issue proposes as a metaphorical framework the term interior constellation, which symbolizes the convergence of diverse disciplines and perspectives in the study and design of contemporary living environments. By embracing this trans- and multidisciplinary approach, architects and designers can navigate the complexities of ongoing crises and technological advancements, fostering an all-inclusive understanding that goes beyond traditional boundaries. In this light, this issue of PAD journal offers critical reflection and valuable insights for shaping the future of domestic spaces in a world marked by constant change and adaptation.

With: Michela Bassanelli, Chiara Lecce (Managing editor PAD journal), Vera Sacchetti.
