Housewine

HOUSEWINE -making is a rewarding and enjoyable activity. However, the available equipment is bulky and aesthetically unappealing. Where the process is often hidden away from view in garages and basements. This is a real shame, as wine is a living, breathing entity which deserves an audience to witness it maturing. Domestic production during times of economic uncertainty has made us also re-evaluate the scale, scope, and transparency of the global food production chain.

With the project HOUSEWINE, designer Sabine Marcelis has scaled down the production of winemaking. HOUSEWINE is an all in one home-brew installation which celebrates the process of wine-making by bringing it into our living space. An installation which requires nurturing and care and exists as a calming presence in the home. Introducing improved functionality and ease of use coupled with aesthetic value.
