House of Wonders

Werner Aisslinger created a site-specific installation Hall in Munich, showing how the production of food and furniture can be adapted to individual requirements.

Award-winning product designer Werner Aisslinger has been invited to create a site-specific installation for the Paternoster Hall at Pinakothek der Moderne. This new format, scheduled in each case for 10 months, expands the idea of a temporary exhibition and alters the image of Die Neue Sammlung.

For Die Neue Sammlung, Werner Aisslinger converts the Paternoster Hall into a lively “House of Wonders”. The Paternoster elevators are part of a new temporary architecture, which offers fluctuating living and working situations. Micro-farming projects dispersed around the building exemplify how the production of food and furniture can be adapted to individual requirements.

Connecting analogue and decorative designs with digital technology, robots, and drones more and more implemented into our daily lives, Werner Aisslinger is questioning the bond between big data and user behavior in terms of aesthetics and emotions.
