Learn to bake bread, but not exactly how you know it. Join the Austria pavilion in an exploration of dough and finished bread as a multi-sensory experience. Dive into a world of inter-species symbiosis with thousands of different microorganisms. Discuss how these microorganisms have coexisted for over 10,000 years, find out how we feed them and how they in return help us to produce our staple food, bread. And of course, get the chance to taste delicious bread and analyse flavours, sounds and textures.

An exhibition that highlights the processes of cooperation, reuse of artefacts, and interpretations of production cycles by reflecting an object’s end of life. The project showcases the opportunities to put resources and projects that started their life in Italy back into circulation in very different geographical locations.

‘Urban Fabric’ is a large-scale ‘village-square’ installation that merges traditional city planning with the Phoenician-Maltese tradition of fabric production and dyeing of the multiple colours of Phoenician purple. The installation uses wood, recycled stone and organic fabric that is certified eco-friendly for its main components. These create a ‘street-like’ layout that enables the audience to meet and collaborate while interacting directly with the installation.

The pavilion asks questions around the durability of the objects on display, built for times of crisis and insecurity – and what is expected of a modern designer at these moments? 

London Design Biennale 2023 was an interactive, musical and kinetic exhibition of design and design-led innovation from across the globe.

From 1 - 25 June 2023, 40+ designers from around the world responded to the theme - The Global Game: Remapping Collaborations – at Somerset House.
