‘Home Sweet Home’ kicks off the Triennale’s 100th anniversary celebrations with a critical, design-led approach to the theme of the house and domestic space
‘Home Sweet Home’ is a new exhibition at Triennale Milano that marks the institution's centenary celebrations. How has the process of designing our house changed?
