No Comments on Smithsonian Design Triennial names participants to create 25 installations related to the concept of home

This fall, Cooper Hewitt, Smithsonian Design Museum will exhibit Making Home—Smithsonian Design Triennial. The museum has commissioned 25 site-specific installations examining “design’s role in shaping the physical and emotional realities of home across the U.S.,” as stated in a press release. The multi-floor exhibition will be on view at the Andrew and Louise Carnegie Mansion from November 2, 2024 through Summer 2025. It will be the seventh iteration of the museum’s Design Triennial series, which began in 2000, and is in collaboration with the Smithsonian’s National Museum of African American History and Culture.

“All of [the installations] gesture towards a greater understanding of how we are living in this nation and how design plays an active role in this shared experience,” Maria Nicanor, director of Cooper Hewitt, said in a statement.

The museum previously announced the three curators of the upcoming Smithsonian Design Triennial: Alexandra Cunningham Cameron, curator of contemporary design and Hintz Secretarial Scholar at Cooper Hewitt; Christina L. De León, associate curator of Latino design at Cooper Hewitt; and Michelle Joan Wilkinson, curator of architecture and design at the Smithsonian’s National Museum of African American History and Culture.

Johnston Marklee will oversee the exhibition design.

Each floor at the Andrew and Louise Carnegie Mansion will be dedicated to a specific theme. Going Home presents the diverse ways that domestic spaces impact people’s “experiences, behaviors, and values,” while Seeking Home explores the concept of home through the “lenses of cultural heritage, the human body, imagined landscapes, and refuge.” The final theme, Building Home, pushes beyond the single-family construction model to consider new ways of conceptualizing and designing the home, such as cooperative living, community space, land stewardship, decolonial practices, and historic preservation.

Selected participants include Leong Leong, architecture studio and design consultancy founded…

HAMILTON TOWNSHIP — U.S. Rep Jeff Van Drew led nearly a dozen township and Atlantic County officials on a tour of the Lake Lenape Dam on Monday for a progress update on the multimillion-dollar reconstruction project.

“Good infrastructure is the backbone of a thriving society. It leads to economic growth, increased public safety and an overall higher quality of life,” Van Drew said. “When our roads, bridges and dams are in top condition, everyone benefits. Rebuilding the Lake Lenape Dam is essential for maintaining our high standards and fortifying the integrity of our local infrastructure.”

Van Drew, R-2nd, said that as a congressman he’s always been focused on improving the district’s infrastructure.

“It’s good to see our federal dollars going toward something that is real and helps South Jersey,” Van Drew said. “When you’re a member of Congress, it’s important to take care of pressing problems in your district.”

The dam, located at 113 Mill St. in Mays Landing, was built in the 1860s and is classified by the state Department of Environmental Protection as a “Class One High Hazard Dam,” meaning it would pose a serious risk to those in the area if it were to fail.

Township Committeeman Carl Pitale said the dam’s existing spillway is 110 feet with three gates and has been repaired multiple times. However, the gates, which control waterflow, have been getting more difficult to close over the past two decades.

“We’ve been battling to get these gates to open and close properly,” Pitale said. “We tried…
