MDes Interior Design

35 students

Students on the Masters programme in Interior Design worked through lockdown, with their supervisors, in little island-clusters. This studio-archipelago enabled a fresh critique of disciplinary custom and practice. In a subject such as interiors, so entwined with the experiential, the material and the temporal, how could we bridge the space between the real and the virtual. When perspective is delivered through the narrow channels of the lens, mic, screen and speaker, how do we preserve meaning. When operating in a distributed way, how do we support diverse and distinct expressions of identity while maintaining meaningful interconnectedness.

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

The Coming Out project aims to respond to and critique contemporary society's understanding and inclusion of gender and space. The significance of queer theory also lies in its challenge to traditional gay culture. Because it emphasizes gender diversity and deconstructive concepts of "gender" and binary gender systems, "gay" identity cannot be established, homosexuality is no longer dependent on the heterosexual hegemonic system, and "gay" identity is limited by the heterosexual identity, it is one of the binary. More importantly, queerness challenges all traditional values. It also means opening and closing the cabinet. Opening the closet is a way of revealing your sexuality to society and going to the new world. Closed cabinets meant isolation from society, and no outside interference with anti-capitalist surveillance.
