The installation is a recreation – and re-imagining – of a project undertaken in a abandoned single-family house in Detroit 2010. In the original work, five architects collectively bought a property on Moran Street for $500 cash at a public auction. Each practice then contracted a distinct intervention within its formerly domestic spaces: a kitchen was transformed into a mobile threshold; a bedroom into a hermetic multi-sensory chamber; the dinning room a stepped interior topography; and the detached garage became a atmospheric observatory.

The 3100-square-meter three-dimensional public space, as architect Daniel Libeskind describes it, is designed to be a cultural gateway that connects the city s 18th century grid and medieval walled city. “We wanted to create a museum for the people of Lithuania, and also give this collection a home and an international audience. This collection is about the cultural legacy of the country,” said founder Viktoras Butkus. “Libeskind’s work is expressive, innovative, and, most importantly, has the power to tell the story of the past while connecting to the future of the city,” added Butkus.
