Interior Design. Spatial Practices for Gathering Cultures Istituto Europeo Di Design (IED)

Overview

The  Interior Design. Spatial Practices for Gathering Cultures  programme from Istituto Europeo Di Design (IED)  views space design as a collaborative practice to rewrite and regenerate the relationship between communities, the areas they live in and the ecosystems they are part of. This approach fits into the vision of DesignXCommons, where design is regarded to integrate the commons and regenerate the planet

Methodology

Designing spaces for community events, museum and exhibition layouts, urban interiors and city landscapes takes shape from a close and critical analysis of the relationship between contemporary cities and the narratives they tell. Using an interdisciplinary approach, this course explores the implications and impacts of interior project design on society and the environment, in a way that seeks to critically address global-level changes in either built or non-built ecosystems. 

Why choose it?

They will be able to take on roles in exhibition design involving project planning for shows, trade fair events and parties. 

They will also have the opportunity to work in the field of curatorship for museums, galleries and foundations, as researchers and/or advisers. Other possible career prospects include stage design for theatre and cinema, and also business consulting on project development work in the areas of both product and contract design. Continuing in Ph.D. trajectories at Italian and foreign universities will also be an option.
