Grand Domestic Revolution Handbook compiles investigations and living research into the concept of the home and the "domestic" by more than 25 artists, designers, theorists and activists. Through case studies, project documentation, ephemera, analyses and theory, the status of the home is revealed beyond the narrow lens of private concerns, but with full consideration of a "privateness" that revitalizes the individual and allows for other forms of sociality. In both form and content, this volume attempts to uncover the potentialities of the house and the private sphere through a rethinking of social practices in conjunction with practical design approaches.
