At this year’s Milan Design Week, the Center for Creativity  presented the exhibition House of Creatures, which placed Slovenian design in one of the key international contexts of contemporary design practices.

The project, curated by the international interdisciplinary group Ryan Barriball, Sera Eravci, Urša Gantar, Tine Tribušon, Gašper Uršič and Vid Žnidaršič, has attracted strong attendance and attracted significant interest from the international professional and wider public. The exhibition featured Lara Bohinc, Juicy Marbles, Soft Baroque, Dan Adlešič, Sari Valenci, Maruša Sagadin, Lucija Rosc, Nejc Prah, Janez Suhadolc and Toasted Furniture, who work at the intersection of product design, fashion, visual communications and food development.

The exhibition was included in the program of the Alcova platform, which is considered one of the most prominent venues for contemporary, experimental design and brings together leading designers, curators, institutions and media every year.

International exposure

House of Creatures has been included in reviews and selections of the most interesting presentations of Milan Design Week in leading international media, including The New York Times, CNN Style, Dezeen, Wallpaper and Monocle, as well as in specialized publications such as Designboom, Disegno and Design Anthology. Such media presence confirms the relevance of the project in the international space and significantly contributes to the greater visibility of Slovenian creators and their work.

A project that lasts

The project does not stop with the end of the exhibition. The House of Creatures website has been established, which acts as a permanent platform for the project, providing access to the presented works, the authors and the curatorial concept. Selected visual materials and expanded media materials documenting the exhibition and its context are also available.

The Role of the Center for Creativity

With the House of Creatures project, the Center for Creativity continues its role as a key national platform for the support, production and internationalization of the cultural and creative sector. The presentation at Milan Design Week strengthens the visibility of Slovenian design and opens up new opportunities for international cooperation and further development of creative practices.
