Résumé:
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.

Résumé:
According to old pagan beliefs, Il Malocchio or ''the evil eye'' is a curse causing bad luck and misfortune. In his debut book ''Il Malocchio'', Italian photographer Andrea Simonato depicts the quiet villages of his home region of Vicenza in the Northern Italy as upon this curse of unluckiness causing decay and abandonment. On his walks through sleeping villages and their empty buildings, dark woods and resting groves, Simonato makes extraordinary findings in the seemingly common surroundings. The work echoes both longing and hope, creating a beautiful and poetic, yet mysterious ode to a place called home.
