More ideas. more ARCHITECTURE. more PRODUCTS

TCL brings together the 506 unique products from the last ten exhibitions of the Venice Architecture Biennale,from Latvia's first participation in NEXT (2002) to "How will we live together?" (2021). The Latvian pavilion, therefore, explores  relationship between the Biennale (the "supermarket") and the national pavilions (the "products").

The 506 choices are based on individual convictions and a sense of belonging, in other cases on the perceived characteristics and history of the product, or, again, on adherence to the product category or the desire to standout from the category in which the product is placed.

It's not the products that are important, but your decisions. The 506 choices are based on individual convictions and a sense of belonging. Confronting large number of ideas can be tiring, but what if making decisions could be fun?
