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.

I found that of all the elements that go into forming IDENTITY, this restaurant fulfilled every need when it came to hosting a Christmas event, and I think that's why people can develop such a strong collective memory of this place.

In the original description, the narrator speaks of a scene in the living room when the family has just moved in and everything is full of anticipation and excitement, so in the model I have also used bright, warm colours to create a very welcoming and exciting character of the space

from Research project: Inhabit

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.
