SVESMI curates an experimental Pan-European online project Future Architecture Rooms

In times of pandemics, Anastassia Smirnova SVESMI curates and leads a unique project that creates an environment – a sort of an online architecture – at the intersection of the real and the immaterial.

Commissioned by Future Architecture Platform, the project constructs a context for exchange, knowledge transfer, discussion, education, and presentation for twenty-seven institutions – museums, publishers, galleries and think-tanks, – which are active in the field of architecture, urbanism, and design.

This online environment can respond to the effects of the pandemic, without being disrupted by them. It does not represent a total exodus into the digital sphere, but it is a parallel space that allows this pan-European network to develop projects productively beyond its habitual formats of conferences and workshops.

Here, each member of the platform has its own room which serves as a form of online residency. Each institution occupies an equal space, regardless of its real-world size, history or budget. In the rooms the curators and producers, directors and managers as well as their collaborating architects, critics and publics are free to communicate as they wish.
