Those who visit the 2023 Venice Architecture Biennale's Latvian Pavilion will find themselves in a setting that feels familiar, since the structure has been styled with aisled and rows of products that remind of a supermarket. In fact, there are 506 unique products that line the shelves of this "supermarket," each of which encourages reflection on exhibitions and national pavilions presented at the last decade of biennales.
On the fake store's one-dimensional shelves, visitors will find fake tins, cartons and boxes that revisit ideas previously presented in a playful way. This pavilion was made possible with the help of artificial intelligence, which made it possible for designers to create a high volume of products in a short period of time, all the while maintaining visual cohesion.
