The book 'Interiors. Notes and Figures' was published on the occasion of Belgium’s participation in the 14th Venice Architecture Biennale.
'Interiors. Notes and Figures' takes the interior as its subject – something which is, in fact, little documented or analysed once the construction of a building is complete. The hypothesis is that a vernacular architectural culture, characterised by the transformations made by occupants, can be observed in a domestic context.
Using a photographic survey of domestic interiors throughout Belgium, chosen according to a theoretical sampling method based on geographical, historical and typological criteria, the selection of images reveals the invisible dynamics of our familiar built surroundings.
