PHp#2 The power to move your business.
We designed an architectural structure to house and distribute our magazines, create space for our library, and offer a meeting place where books and people could come together.
The structure took the form of a replica of a Greek periptero—a street kiosk that traditionally sells drinks, cigarettes, newspapers, and small items like chewing gum. In our version, it became a place where people could find zines and magazines created in the Pink House, as well as publications from friends. Any profit made from these editions helped to cover the house’s expenses.
The structure was designed and built by Camille Cluzan, Ersi Varveri, and Gijs Waterschoot, with special thanks to Valentine Cernat and Adam Galach.
Our periptero was open on various weekends, inviting visitors to explore our publications. Over time, it became a feature of nearly every event held at the Pink House. Built to be easily dismantled and rebuilt, the kiosk was made to travel and adapt to other locations and occasions. (See below.)
