the non-pavilion creates a space in its most minimal sense, inviting visitors to engage with the idea of ‘less’ as enrichment rather than loss. drawing on the beauty and simplicity of swiss baugespanne – the poles, rods and wires erected to help the public visualize the impact of a proposed development – the non-pavilion serves as a ghostly reminder of our urgent need to produce less.
through ar technology the digital pavilions aim to ask pertinent questions for our times. can design facilitate a change in mindsets away from consumerism and the mantra of economic growth? can design help identify and promote societal values fit for the 21st century and advance a sustainable, prosperous and fulfilling human existence? how can designers and architects use their skills to provide vision and inspiration for this progressive and much needed movement?

this year’s exhibition, inspired by the idea of a card house, will guide visitors through texts, images, illustrations, prototypes, materials and objects, narrating the creative story of each designer. designers will be presented not just as creative individuals, but in the context of their creative world, understanding their signature styles, and exploring the influences behind their work.
