Boliglaboratorium: A Danish Housing Lab

The Chicago Architecture Biennial and MAS Context present the exhibition Boliglaboratorium: A Danish Housing Lab featuring six groundbreaking Danish architectural projects. The exhibition will take place at the CAB Studio inside the Chicago Cultural Center (78 East Washington Street. Chicago, IL 60602).

Boliglaboratorium: A Danish Housing Lab, an exhibition curated by Nord Architects, is a joint initiative of the Danish Arts Foundation and Realdania. The US premier of the exhibition is presented by Scan Design Foundation, whose mission is to support the cross-cultural exchange between Denmark and the US, in partnership with the Embassy of Denmark in Washington DC.
