»Garden Futures« – Guided tour at the Vitra Design Museum (DE)

Details

Gardens reflect identities, dreams, and visions. Deeply rooted in their culture, they can unfold immense symbolic potential. The recent revival of horticulture has focused less on the garden as a romantic refuge than as a place where concepts of social justice, biodiversity, and sustainability can be tried and tested. Gardens have become places of the avantgarde. The exhibition »Garden Futures« at the Vitra Design Museum is the first to explore the history and future of modern gardens.

»Colour Rush!« – Guided tour at the Vitra Schaudepot (DE)

Details

Colours are a vital element of design. Dutch designer Sabine Marcelis has transformed the Vitra Schaudepot in one simple, sweeping gesture by sorting its roughly four hundred exhibits by colour. The installation produces fascinating cross-references between periods and styles and between iconic pieces by designers including Arne Jacobsen, Aino Aalto, Verner Panton, and Charles & Ray Eames as well as anonymous makers. Join the guided tour to discover new perspectives and learn more about the background of this spectacular immersive experience.
