Template:About Template:AI-generated Template:Infobox building

House of Dust is an architectural work built in 2013 in Rome, designed by the Italian architect Antonino Cardillo. The project is characterised by a combination of different elements: use of the golden ratio, coarse plaster walls and brown ceilings, arched doorways, walls and ceilings coloured in a pale shade of pink, and a cylindrical ghostly white curtain.[1]

Background

The project was designed and built between September 2012 and March 2013 in a 100 m² apartment in the Rione Ludovisi of Rome.[1]

Design

House of Dust explores the relationship between proportion, materiality and memory. A vaulted ceiling finished in rustic earth-toned plaster evokes primordial caverns and Renaissance grotesques, while a sequence of elongated arches conceals doors and storage elements. The intimate rooms are characterised by pale pink walls and a pink glass doorknob marking the transition to the private areas.[2]

Reception

The work has been featured in international lifestyle and architecture magazines.[3][1][4][5] Nacho Alegre included House of Dust in a list of ten significant contemporary interior works from 2010 to 2015.[6]

Surveys and lookbooks

House of Dust has been cited in Dezeen's selections of pink‑hued interiors and exposed‑plaster residential spaces.[7][8]

Trend‑forecasting

International trend agencies have included the work in reports forecasting trends for several seasons from 2015 to 2019.[9][10][11][12]

Exhibition

The project was exhibited at the XXI Triennale di Milano (2016).[13]
