Issue #21

Openhouse is a biannual magazine about art, design, architecture, and culture. Creative people worldwide share their philosophy of life based on the conservation of values like tradition, nature, art, and identity.

Issue 21 is inspired by the words of Erasmus of Rotterdam, ‘In Praise of Folly,’ the essay likening madness to the dawn of a new day, to the spark preceding the impulse to create. This insight accompanies us in Charlotte Taylor’s editorial at Side Gallery, Barcelona. It takes us to George Rouy’s genie in an English chapel. It is embodied by Laurence Leenaert’s world in Riad Rosemary, Marrakech, and keeps us mesmerized at Jorge Zalszupin’s and Marcos Acabaya’s houses in Brazil.
