Category: Exhibition

X Artefacts exhibits ten moments when the invited architects got physically involved in the production, fabrication or implementation of building materials. Prototypes, samples and other artefacts in the exhibition bear witness to these situations, when the architects departed from their role as designers-prescribers to engage in making.

With artefacts by: Alive, Atelier Alain Richard, Atelier De Vylder Vinck Taillieu, BC Architects & Studies, Collectif Dallas, Design with Sense, Karbon, Mamout, Ouest, Rotor.
