27. Biennial of Design (BIO27) Super Vernaculars

Thursday, May 26, 20226 PM — Thursday, Sep 29, 20226 PMCEST

Ljubljana, SI Ljubljana, SI

The 27th edition of BIO Ljubljana (BIO27), the oldest and one of the leading design biennials in the world, opening on 26 May under the curatorship of Jane Withers, brings together forward-thinking and environmentally conscious designers, architects, thinkers and researchers from around the globe. 

The theme for BIO27, Super Vernaculars, explores a growing and ambitious movement that takes inspiration from vernacular architecture and design intelligence to shape a more resilient and equitable future.

Super Vernaculars reveals how designers and architects are taking note of vernacular traditions and value systems largely ignored in the modern era to create imaginative responses to contemporary challenges such as water scarcity, waste and declining biodiversity.  The projects featured in BIO27 foreground localism, connection to nature and ecological resilience. Super Vernaculars approaches include a city-wide nature-based water management system, low-energy alternatives to air conditioning, zero-waste food systems and design that supports local communities and landscape regeneration.

Curated by leading independent curator, design consultant and writer, Jane Withers, with assistant curator Ria Hawthorn (UK), Super Vernaculars is envisaged as a collection of stories told through case studies that show how these ideas serve as a springboard for contemporary innovation.

Based at the Museum of Architecture and Design (MAO) and created in cooperation with, the Centre for Creativity Slovenia (CzK), the Biennial comprises the Super Vernaculars exhibition; a presentation of the five production platform commissions; and a vibrant programme of talks, workshops and engaging events. A city-wide satellite programme of exhibits and events will be announced in April.

Featuring: Assemble and BC Architects, Ant Studio, Marjan van Aubel, DnA Design and Architecture, Isla Urbana, Kellenberger-White, Swati Janu, Fernando Laposse, Atelier LUMA, Shneel Malik, Enzo Mari, Material Cultures, Bruno Munari, Joar Nango, Carolien Niebling, Ooze, Marjetica Potrč, Francesca Sarti, Adam Štěch, Trajna, and many more, as well as five BIO27 Production Platform teams: Krater, Robida.plus, Pjorkkala, Garnitura and Futuring.
