Exuberance is a contemporary aesthetical but also strategical style phenomenon which questions the environment in an original way by using phenomenological aspects of language, expression, communication, function, typology or identity. Given this context we will identitify specific types of fetishism and examine various object spaces and spacial objects in terms of form, material, size, aesthetics etc in Vienna. The design task is first to develop a strategy, prognosis or thesis, secondly to codify a proto-protocol and to structure the speculative contsruction and finally to design a hybrid of form and perfomrance which is staged at a specific site/place in Vienna.
