Kitchen Stories

Wat ass Architektur? – Cinémarchitecture

Free entry

@ Rotondes
In post war Sweden it was discovered that every year, an average housewife walks the equivalent number of miles as the distance between Stockholm and Congo, while preparing her family meals. So the Home Research Institute sent out eighteen observers to a rural district of Norway to map out the kitchen routines of single men.

The researchers were on twenty-four-hour call and sat in special strategically placed chairs in each kitchen. Furthermore, under no circumstances were the researchers to be spoken to or included in the kitchen activities.

Wat ass Architektur?

Wat ass Architektur? (What is architecture?) is a series of events full of discoveries around — as you might have guessed — architecture.

We live in apartments and houses, we work in various office buildings, we spend our free time in theatres, swimming pools, restaurants and public spaces. But how much do we really know about the processes of creation and construction of the architectural landscapes that surround us?
WAA has been initiated to raise questions on various topics related to architecture while presenting their relevance in a national and international context.
At every WAA evening, you can expect a movie preceded and followed by unreleased film footage by WAA, highlighting the link between the projected film and Luxembourg.
