Studio Wieki Somers has worked on a body of work that combines innovation and tradition with wonder. Their work and ethos have been shared in the exhibition Out of the Ordinary, presented as part of the Musée de design et d’arts appliqués contemporains (mudac) “Carte Blanche” series.
Astonished by a general lack of consideration for our environment, the design duo has continuously questioned why things are as they are, exploring the significance and deeper meanings that lie hidden in our rituals of daily use. Out of the Ordinary offered an intuitive and contemplative journey that explored the oeuvre of the studio via fifteen different projects, delving into some of its research themes to reveal how the studio’s work transforms the ordinary.
