Spridd are the exhibition architects for the housing exhibition Bo.Nu.Då at Arkdes. The housing crisis is not the news. The greater part of the 1900s was characterized by recurring periods of housing shortages. The exhibition depicts the problems and solutions to the housing crisis from 1917 to today and into the future.

The exhibition architecture is based on a prefabricated post and lintel system for building construction in wood from Moelven, which establishes a clear framework for a light fabric wall structure that illuminates the power of structure`s elementary parts; skeleton and cladding.

The exhibition is characterized by an overall idea of presenting layer by layer - drawings, statistics, projections, models, full-scale drawings, furniture and stories.
The framework of the exhibition architecture can, after the exhibition, be converted to a new permanent exhibition of the Arkdes. The well-known vast space in the old Exercise Hall, a space where Pontus Hulten legendary, iconic exhibitions in the `60s took place, is converted into multiple small and large rooms where the visitor can take part in various aspects of a broad collection of topics. The ArkDes gets a new spatial structure that brings together the museum's various parts.
