Die Vermessung des Alltags

Living in a standardized world raises questions about how much space there is for other voices, positions, and practices within this normative environment. How do non-standards become standards, and how can artistic and architectural practices emancipate themselves within such contexts? How can art challenge and inform architectural standards that have been established for centuries?

The project "Die Vermessung des Alltags" was part of the Bauhaus semester and aimed to organize and moderate a "Critical Train of Thought" during a congress at one of the decentralized, historical sites in Weimar. The project team visited the Neufert House, located three kilometers from Weimar, through an extraordinary bus journey and filled the visit with performative city and house tours, as well as on-site presentations, exhibitions, and events.
