About the Theme
What we overlook often holds the most potential.
The Strange Everyday explores how design transforms the familiar into the unexpected. By shifting scale, material, context, or function, the ordinary is reimagined, revealing new meanings, disrupting habits, and uncovering the extraordinary within daily life.
