MDES INTERIOR DESIGN

Reid Building, 39 students

We are delighted to celebrate another year of fantastic work from Interior Design MDes students. They are actively engaging with the social and political aspects of everyday life using their spatial education as a navigational device. Their critical approaches emphasise the production of space with the use of physical and digital tools. Venturing beyond mainstream notions of the discipline, they imagine types of future human inhabitation and suggest how spaces might be. Their studies, together with their personal stories, have furnished them with the greatest opportunity to discuss, debate and  explore innovative approaches to the making of interiors, and thereby reframing our relationship with space.

These and other questions were floated between participants, their answers may be found embedded in the work you will discover here.

The first means used by human to communicate are sounds and words alongside posture. Movement can be used as an inspiring way to perceive It was developed for the purpose of sensing into the systems we are embedded within to gain insight and wisdom, to close the feedback loop between reality and its invisible source of awareness and thought. This invisible source of thought and awareness can only be accessed and understood in the present moment.

It's evident that people are progressively drifting away from the natural rhythms. As humanity continues to exploit the environment without restraint, certain natural calamities have become unavoidable. Despite some efforts to promote environmental awareness, the voice conveying such consciousness remains faint. The truth is, the majority of people turn a blind eye to environmental conservation and resource preservation. On one hand, they perceive their individual efforts as too feeble to achieve significant outcomes. On the other hand, they consider the depletion of planetary resources a distant issue, given that their lifespans are destined not to extend into that period. To prevent such a scenario, I believe it's essential to elevate public awareness regarding environmental issues, as well as the pressing need for responsible lifestyles and consumption habits. In response to this challenge, I have undertaken theoretical research on the matter.
