"Everything we think of as being normal in the home, everything we think of as being traditional—they're all inventions," states Jack Self, the London-based founder of the REAL Foundation, during an interview conducted as part of Archinect's fourth live podcasting event, Next Up: Floating Worlds. "The corridor is an invention, the single bed is an invention, the kitchen is an invention. And they're all constantly in a state of evolution. If we can view the house as a design object and as an artificial construct with social relations, then anyone can have power to change the way that they live. Go home and rearrange your living room. Put all the soft surfaces in one room and all the hard surfaces in another room. You'll instantly see how much of a construct your home is."
