What does “home” mean when living between cultures?
ODD82 explores the space between foreign and familiar—where things that once felt odd gradually become ordinary.
This exhibition brings together seven designers of Korean origin who live and work in Munich. Through their diverse practices, they examine the concept of “home” from a transcultural perspective.
Rather than defining home as a purely physical location, the exhibition approaches it as a layered construct shaped by memory, identity, materiality, and lived experience. While the participants share a common point of departure, their work has evolved within a different cultural environment. Experiences of migration, adaptation, distance, and return have reshaped their understanding of belonging.
The presented works range from object and spatial installations to visual, conceptual and process-based approaches. They reflect on how perception shifts when the familiar becomes foreign—and the foreign gradually turns familiar.
ODD82 stands for “Odd + Ordinary,” describing a state in which aspects that once felt unfamiliar become integrated into everyday life. The exhibition invites visitors to reconsider their own understanding of home: Where does belonging begin, and can home be more than a geographical place?

ODD82 combines “ODDINARY”—the extraordinary within the ordinary—with Korea’s country code, 82. Based in Munich, the collective connects Korean creators across disciplines through design and art.
