EMBRACING THE MATERIAL and intellectual complexities and contradictions magnified by the psychological agency inherent in the subject of interiority, the students are encouraged to trace their own paths through this everchanging palimpsest-like topography, unearthing traces of history over and through which they weave active, contemporary practices. Site visits to abandoned buildings, devoid of any tangible use or potential future are seen with fresh eyes and full of new promise. Interiors are elusive by nature, conspiratorial and inviting, dark, brooding, but also strangely alluring. MA Interior Design programme is poised to deliver new and exciting avenues of creative engagement. As a reflective example bearing these complexities, Retail and Decoding The Interior modules are set up in this context and seen as both antagonists and attractors, offering professional, vocational action and active intellectual reaction. Our thesis projects are exemplars of these manifold concerns, embracing ambitious conceptual strategies, but also striving for delicate, intricate material renderings. As the static, indulgent ‘expert’ gaze is being augmented and supplanted by the contemporary democratic idiom of the omnipresent cinematic ‘measuring’ of time and space, the course is pedagogically engaged through film and animation components of the Case Study and Introduction to Design Computing modules.
