Abstract

Five artists and designers were given free rein of the Museum of Domestic Design and Architecture, as part of a local regeneration project in the Hasler Gallery, North Finchley. This was an exciting opportunity to develop new work inspired by the Museum's collections, and to show it in an unusual location. The site itself, the Hasler Gallery, was crucial to the success of the project and proved to be a catalyst for some of the work's development. As this book shows, all of the artists made connections between what they saw in the Museum and the space in which they showed their work. This project reminds us of the value of museum collections not just as a record of the past, but as the starting point for innovation in the present and change for the future.
