Campaign offices

team Sebastian Duque (CO), Roubini Makridou (GR)

A shopping-mall ground floor was turned, in one week time, to the campaign-quarters of a socio-ecologic party. The intention was to use the former shop-windows as a permeable buffer between the street and the interior. By using "green-roofing" techniques, these spaces were "cropped" with spice-plants and flowers of different kinds. Independent and self-characterised Dry-wall volumes where used to divide private and public activities and, superficially, were worked-out in cooperation with a graphic-design team. Originally designed (and fairly cheap) furniture like lounge-stools, grass-carpets and hanging-paper lamps, never made their way to come to real. Nevertheless we won the elections.
