Flux is a system for temporary storage designed as scenography for the transformation of entering and leaving the home. It is created through an exploration of the dramaturgical and choreographic dimension of the entryway that inspires play, movement and whimsical open interactions with user as an actor on the border between the inside and outside.The word "foyer" has roots in the classical theater, as a room where actors rest before going on stage, or a theater vestibule before entering the "other world".
The items in the anteroom are costumes and props for entering the stage of the outside world – and the furniture is the scenography of the passage.The construction consists of the frame as a unique mobile of elements for hanging and storing objects that play with different material properties, openness, density, tactility, movement and sight, light and shadow — together or individually.
These are elastic nets and pocket, springs, movable hooks, perforated panels and rotating boxes and mirrors that reflect the nature of improvised interventions with the aim of intuitive use for temporary storage in a context that goes beyond the hallway.Valuing flexibility that is missing in the category of design for entryways — Flux is an easily disassembled and creatively adaptable multifunctional system that corresponds to different floor plans and spatial conditions with the potential of independent (re)configuration for a range of styles and scenarios of use.
