\n 1<\/a>\n

To cruise is to search for like-minded people. Although it is possible to cruise practically anywhere, there are specific environments in which encounters are more likely to take place such as clubs, bars, bathhouses, and bookstores. Although such places cannot be reduced to a single type of architecture, they often feature rooms for socialising (i.e. a lounge or a bar). They can openly advertise as gay or queer venues, and they can also blend into the background of the city as places known only to members of a specific community.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/li>\n

\n 2<\/a>\n

The spatial layout of designed darkrooms, as well as their materiality, atmosphere and ornaments, have their origins in public spaces. Although in almost every case no architect or designer is formally behind their design, the darkroom, charged by the potential of sexual interaction without the need to undress, is a common architectural feature of gay venues across the world.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/li>\n <\/ol>\n <\/footer>\n <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n

About the project<\/h2>\n \n
Cruising Pavilion<\/em> at ArkDes is the culmination of two years of research by the curatorial collective Cruising Pavilion<\/a>. Previous exhibitions of the project in Venice, Italy (Spazio Punch), and New York City, USA (Ludlow38), have explored the different directions by which cruising practices have evolved. In this third and final exhibition, the project focuses on the intersection of sexuality and the architecture of the city.<\/p>\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n

Boxen at ArkDes<\/h2>\n \n
Boxen \u2197<\/a> was a platform for fast-changing, experimental projects at ArkDes. It provided space for alternative voices to inspire discussions about architecture, design, and their relationship to society by promoting radical and responsive installations, exhibitions, events and dialogues by and between architects, designers, and thinkers. Designed by the emerging architecture studio <\/span>Dehlin Brattg\u00e5rd \u2197<\/a>, Boxen opened in 2018 and was dismantled in 2023. All materials have been reused in the 2024 redesign of the museum’s spaces, designed by <\/span>Arrhov Frick \u2197<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n

Boxen \u2197<\/a> was a platform for fast-changing, experimental projects at ArkDes. It provided space for alternative voices to inspire discussions about architecture, design, and their relationship to society by promoting radical and responsive installations, exhibitions, events and dialogues by and between architects, designers, and thinkers. Designed by the emerging architecture studio <\/span>Dehlin Brattg\u00e5rd \u2197<\/a>, Boxen opened in 2018 and was dismantled in 2023. All materials have been reused in the 2024 redesign of the museum’s spaces, designed by <\/span>Arrhov Frick \u2197<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n
