Designs on Jerusalem: Hansen House hosts event devoted to everyday aesthetics around us
The week, which takes place July 9-16 at its perennial berth of Hansen House, feeds off major sporting events taking place around the globe and even here, this summer
Assessment
An event at Hansen House is using the backdrop of major sporting events to explore everyday aesthetics in Jerusalem. The timing suggests an effort to connect global cultural moments with local design conversations. It remains to be seen how the sports theme will translate into the programming and whether this approach draws new audiences to the venue.
