Living Room

Living room in Arabic is “al-madafeh” and is a room for both hosting and hospitality. For the exhibition, The Stockholm-based Palestinian architect Sandi Hilal has created a living room where everyone is welcome. The installation has a twin in a home in Boden, northern Sweden. There Sandi Hilal, along with Yasmeen Mahmoud and Ibrahim Haj Abdullah who are refugees from Syria, have created a public room for everyone in the town by hosting people in the couple’s living room. The apartment is a place where other refugees can meet and feel like hosts, with a natural place in their new country–rather than feeling like guests.
