We would like to invite you to join a workshop that looks closely at the idea of “home” and the many ways it is shaped, lived in, and imagined. Together, we will explore how domestic spaces are formed, not only through architecture and interior design, but through memories, routines, care, and personal stories.

At a time when many people are on the move, when power structures grow harder, and when inequality enters even the smallest corners of daily life, the question of what makes a home feel safe and familiar becomes essential. This workshop opens a space to think about these issues collectively.

Through conversation, drawing, and simple participatory exercises, we will reflect on how domestic environments take shape and how designers—and non-designers—can approach them with greater attention and sensitivity. Our goal is not to offer solutions, but to learn from one another and to imagine new ways of thinking about home.

The workshop follows the launch of our book They Asked Me to Design a House, I Asked Them to Design a Home at @hyper.hypo.athens on Thursday November 27th.
Some of the featured exercises from the book will be part of the session in the form of a participatory performance around the topics:

Domesticity is Inherently Tied to Space
Sometimes, Domesticity is Also about the Decorative
But Don’t Forget about Hospitality!

Everyone is welcome, designers, non-designers, people curious about domesticity, or anyone simply wishing to reflect on the spaces they inhabit.
