Every opening day, Villa Tugendhat is full of visitors and tourists from all over the world, who admire the empty shelves, the chairs and armchairs that cannot be moved, the beds that no one sleeps in. What would happen if you moved into the house with your family or friends? What would the beautiful functionalist austere spaces of the villa look like if a family of five occupied it? Where could you put a hamster cage or an aquarium? Where would you put your computer, where would you most like to read a book, where would you most enjoy breakfast?
