pubs.rights-statement	Addressing suburban ills requires massive change to systems, to finance, to transportation and infrastructure, and perhaps most challenging, to a culture deeply wedded to suburbia as emblematic of the American Dream. This investigation explored how suburban homeowners can supplement their income and develop a new vocation by offering home-made services and facilities to the public. The loss of real estate value implicit in the housing foreclosure crisis sped up the possible extinction of the suburbs. Lisa and Leo Domestic Museum converted a suburban home into a museum, in which the homeowners can preserve a way of life that is threatened, subsidized by entrance fees paid by the public. New Yorkers were encouraged to visit the domesticity museum to gain an appreciation for the suburban promise of a good life. Lisa and Leo Domestic Museum was included in Open house, a project by Droog in collaboration with Diller Scofidio + Renfro. Open house was presented in a one-day event on Saturday, April 23rd, 2011. It commenced with a symposium at Studio-X New York introduced and moderated by Mark Wasiuta of Columbia University, followed by a bus trip to Levittown, where visitors could view and participate in nine house installations in the neighborhood, designed and executed by architects, designers and artists in collaboration with the homeowners.	en_US
