Furniture is used as a conceptual driver of the design, through a range of ritual experiments, sketches and physical modelling a ‘co-furnishing strategy’ was developed. Projecting forward into the future outcome of the site, the PHPDP will provide 175 new co-housing dwellings including some small retail and public spaces within and surrounding. Each project presents a unique and individual exploration into interior design. A Masters degree enables them to have the same level of qualification and recognition. The proposed series of sets and their accompanying performances address the shift in the arts industry in a post-COVID landscape. RMIT University respectfully acknowledges their Ancestors and Elders, past and present. According to the City of Melbourne’s Tourist Administration, the number of tourists from overseas has dramatically increased in the past twenty years. It helps to reduce the feeling of fear and re-instate their joyfulness and freedom. A building of safekeeping, the Svalbard Global Seed Vault stores seeds from all over the world as a means of protection. The research explores and responds to material through intervening with material to incite activation, framing and interaction. Balloting Opens: 10.00am Tuesday 14th July The diagrams portray thresholds at the site and are superimposed to support distant and close interactions. This process based research aspires to rekindle an ecological curiosity and sensitivity. Since the mid-1990s, there has been an increasing emphasis on patient-centred design and a growing understanding of the importance of incorporating high-quality garden areas within our physical environments. The question posed is; how can we design communal spaces in aged care to encourage the residents to foster relationships and interact? Waiting is experienced differently, often both positively and negatively. This transitional experience is intended to emphasise an awareness of one’s own looking through moments of uncertainty, a dissolving of inside and outside and the actual and virtual. There is a contrast between the two pavilions, whilst also a progression. At a Vocational Education level, the Certificate IV in Interior Decoration and the Diploma of Interior Design focus on residential design and the development of high-level documentation and technical skills. It also allows people to express loose behaviour of movement in the existing site conditions. INDEX Graduate Exhibition. This project re-presents televised scenes from ‘Neighbours’ and locates these back in to the ‘real’ suburban space of Pin Oak Crescent in Vermont South, putting forward this alternate space as a set wherein neighbourliness and neighbourhood dynamics could unfurl. It seeks to explore the transitional spaces of waiting between the interior and exterior, prompting the question: how can spatial interventions facilitate the act of waiting in our everyday? The work ultimately address two questions. An exploration into ideas of how memory of the previous sites architecture and tenant experience can be used as a design tool to better understand the human experience and inform the space providing a rich interactive and immersive environment while paying homage to the past site and residents. I use video to record time and space, to materialize the activity of the imagination, bringing people into the spiritual reality of time to consider ways in which a creative use of technology might produce a different future. A Summer Pavilion and Winter Pavilion produce a spatial relationship to the existing environment by allowing the visitor a new scenic experience. The exterior of building is activated to allow recreational activities. Through creating interior spaces that are embedded with agricultural narratives, this project aims to give rise to moments of understanding and engagement, and create an interface between the community and the farmers producing their food. This epistemological approach considers the root cause of the production of one's own interior as well as social space, curating a body of work that unpacks the existing cultural production of multiple individuals within different communities. Through the framing of atmospheric phenomena and transition into the ambiguous digital realm, this body of work emphasises an attunement to the calming, overlooked qualities of interior space as a means to appreciate the benefits of this period of extended interiority. Archiving is a method of cataloguing experience; as a means to capture a moment in time preserving for future generations the information and experiences that have shaped society. The research question arises: How can the technique of scenography be applied in the context of healthcare to provide positive living and therapeutic experiences for sick children? Time to sit still is limited and boredom commonly avoided. Furthermore, these interventions act as real-time memorials; a historical and contemporary recording that is ever evolving and accessible to those who cannot be physically present. Three themes were applied to the design, according to the three different seasons in Singapore. This body of research explores strategies to reconstruct past site narratives into new structures. The border is defined by the natural flow of the Murray River but is now a hard delineation affecting the ability for exchange and negotiation between the cities. Which then in turn serves as a form of documentation and a piece of archival information to be performed and viewed by future generations. This project proposes a set of wearable garments and spatial apparatus that draw attention to the intangible connections between people and their environment. In this way, 【RE】Restaurant is designed to highlight wider issues around food origin and importation in Singapore. So too do international students who travel far from their hometown to share the same limited space. The act of waiting is part of our everyday and a derivative of the service offering in the hospitality industry. is an opportunity for students to refine their thinking and approach, to establish a focus for future work with an emphasis on commercial interior design practice in the Australasia/Asia Pacific region. My curiosity started as a personal inquiry into the meaning of a home, being with home and being at home. Noticing is prompted through specific vantage points that allow aspects of the site to be concealed and revealed. Interaction between people has been diminished, engagement with real spaces, real bodies, with proximity itself has been lost. This project specifically focuses on the aspect of spatial and temporal design of the hospital lobby, lounge areas and movable wards. The project abstracts qualities of the natural environment such as texture, form and undulation of the terrain. College & University. The Summer Pavilion is an open and elevated walkway which intervenes into an existing pathway often travelled for the visitors’ tour raised off the ground plane, staging the orchard from above it provides a new relationship to the horizon line and re-presents the orchard. INDEX itself is an annual encounter with this program culture. This research explores strategies for abstracting nature for the design of indoor space. In the context of the current global pandemic, technology has heavily mediated our social lives as we endure border closures, social distancing and city lockdowns. We move back and forth between various locations with a clear purpose but lack the abilities to explore. It involves a series of material gestures which involve amplifying sound and light qualities within the bunkers many cavities and tunnels and openings. Nowadays, people in the suburbs tend to move and live privately in a smaller area in a big city rather than live with their family. Atmospheric Interactions re-purposes waste materials found in the market to design back into the market. What is interior design? Working with three sites, the south side Magdalen Laundry, Kooyong station control booth and a private domestic house, each in a state of disuse, the Archive as Practice produces an encounter with the conditions that have been collected, researched and uncovered within these interiors. In the final year of their studies, students undertake a yearlong self-directed design project. The project aims to provide a positive and comfortable living and healing experiences for children who were hospitalised. Is it necessary to destroy heritage buildings to accommodate contemporary additions? The research explores how techniques and ideas in comfort and support are more than a subjective experience and propose ways to offer a means of support by bringing people together to facilitate togetherness. We were very fortunate to have Adam Nash join us as part of the discipline team at the beginning of the year. One that lasts long after your leave. It explores the potential of sensory design to ask people to look for something normally hidden or unnoticed in our everyday experiences. But our experience of it is mediated through the projection of our ‘interior’ out, and also, the ‘exterior’ in. In the secondary phase of exploration, this major research project is particularly concerned with the potency of sound as a tool to connect individuals and communities, and to facilitate experiences of interiority. Through this process of engagement with a system the consumer turns carer of water and it is hoped, develops a greater awareness of its vitality. The consideration of agricultural production serving not just as an adjunct, but instead a formative element within the hospitality interior, has the potential to provide insight into the sites and processes that lead to the food on the plate. Through this research, it has been established that Swanston Street has a variety of usages including, commercial, hospitality, multicultural, transportation and arts programs and communities. I am intrigued by the natural landscapes as a situation where creativity and escape can transpire. When the blurring of digital and analogue interiors create in-between spaces, what is our experience of reality when these realms converge? Co-living system: Living facade is a design for an urban site that considers community, affordability, sustainability, public amenity and innovative facade design for a new generation of suburbanites. This research explores how historical and contemporary spaces can be programmed together to facilitate new urban interiors. Parks are both a social and collective space for public interactions, yet due to the pandemic, moments which previously fostered interaction have been seriously impacted. tine investigates how techniques of ritualisation can be applied to design slow spaces that encourage everyday mindfulness. To understand the value of the exterior world, and shape it sustainably and cohesively, we must rethink our own interior values and relationship to the planet. Situated in context of the Alfred Hospital’s existing mental health facilities, Journey to w[Health] is an investigation that seeks to place health as its top priority, while exploring the benefits of horticultural therapy as an alternative treatment for mental health in the hospital’s surrounding green spaces. H2OME is a design project that interrogates the consumers relationship with water in an existing home. Using an established multi-residential typology as a case study for betterment, the project proposes the importance of engaging considered design principles at an early stage of the design process. In our current era of economic globalization and rising nationalism, the importance of nature and its protection appears to be an unresolvable issue. Betwixt & Beyond explores the connections which arise from the interactions of body and space; the visible and invisible; apparatus and surface. Through digital and physical publications, the archive is produced through multiple mediums and distributed across multiple platforms. I have always loved visiting the gallery. This encourages reciprocity between the two communities. Like most of my generation I grew up surrounded by technology. RMIT University acknowledges the people of the Woi wurrung and Boon wurrung language groups of the eastern Kulin Nation on whose unceded lands we conduct the business of the University. As such, MemoryForm is an exploration of techniques and mediums which can be used to capture time and hold memory, in turn investigating ideas of trace, decay, attachment and detachment. Moreover, the sensation of sight, touch, sound and smell of natural elements were also investigated to contribute for sick children’s recovery, through interactive interior design elements. INDEX is the final year graduate exhibition. The project started with research into the concept and qualities of the womb. The site is currently an under-used reserve. This takes away their time for practicing self-care and interacting with the surrounding environment. Leading by example to generate conversation around gardening, composting and reduction of consumption it is hoped that this will foster broader neighbourhood engagement with bigger issues like the regeneration of coastal areas, restoring of biodiversity and caring for local ecosystems. Atmospheres are continuously shifting, forming, and adapting in, and to, space. This exclusion causes a sense of disassociation from our innate place within the living world. The research explores ideas of staging and immersing to shift and create awareness through techniques of performing, lighting, framing, hanging, reflecting, raising, with material arrangement, material transformations and spatial proximities. At present we are facing a pandemic and with this comes uncertain times and economic struggles. How can a tourist absorb information and experience the enjoyment of a site when they cannot visit them physically? This undertaking is an intensive and rigorous activity, that involves creative risk-taking, exploration of in-depth ideas and the development of a personal vision for practising interior design. A mentor program is available to second year students in the Diploma of Interior Design, where around 40 industry partners offer 10-week placements for students. And in turn, how does memory inform space? Shift and Stay enables the space where we own less but share and borrow more. & Coleman, K.S. The Interior Design courses at RMIT reflect this diversity and offer courses that provide students with the relevant skills required. This research project explores how localised environmental action at a neighbourhood level could lead to meaningful change. We not only live in a moment called the Anthropocene, but we are the Anthropocene; our present condition positioning humans as a global agent of destruction of incomprehensible spatial and temporal scale. Ever-Changing is a design for the Braybrook Community Hall utilising sunlight and artificial light to create dynamic interior experiences. How do we reconnect urban experiences with people and how do we construct a walking journey where people can move between the streets with a sense of exploration. Situated in the city the interventions activate the social, historical and atmospheric conditions. 7. Identifying the Anthropocene as a convergence of geological, technological and cultural forces, this research major project is situated within a petrochemical landscape; Burwood Highway in Melbourne. Photos are curated, using filters or pre-sets, to achieve the "perfect" feed. Through strategies of filtering, layering, framing and connecting views the condition of a threshold subtly shifts the possible uses through the affordance of the materiality. A study in memory, set within the framework of the childhood home, specifically my own, MemoryForm poses the question: how does a space inform memory? The project site is located in the heritage car park in which has been developed and transformed into a housing residential neighbourhood, supporting approximately one hundred overseas students. We recently celebrated 80 years of interior design since 1939. The interlacing thread weaving commonality between these sites is they collectively occupy a state of betweenness; a moment in time bracketed by what they once where; halted on their way to becoming something else. This project proposes to bring back that life to the place once more, using the blueprints of what once had existed. Engaging in a maltogenic[2] approach, this project proposes the significance home[making] has to nurturing physical, mental and spiritual wellbeing, and the potential this approach has to developing a new model for aged care living spaces. The interior design industry covers a wide range of design practitioners and firms, from firms dedicated to interior decoration, to large commercial design firms with offices in major cities around the world. A series of events over a week have been choreographed and performed, converting public spaces into temporary theatres, activating a fleeting immersive interior. And during this time, as final year major project students undertaking a major project, they had to create something. However, only few people know that there is a natural creek called Williams Creek running under the concrete. This project questions how a relationship between the body and art viewing experience, can produce a new way of encountering art. Thus, it creates an opportunity for unprescribed experiences to occur, offering a narrative of the in—between. This major project challenges the convention of a monument being static, by exploring monumentalizing being dynamic and integrated within the urban interior. The gradual removal of the blackberries and replanting of native species establishes a management plan that invites others to participate in educational programs and harvest days, providing space for collective experience. PLACE ONLINE. Challenging the perception, usage and experience of the Moonee Ponds Creek, this Major Project has explored the concept of an atmospheric journey, through various materials, climates, seasons, and social encounters. This project draws on techniques of video and photography that document the transient conditions apparent in nature. Whilst this mode of encounter has enabled further accessibility, has digital actualisation of physical spaces resulted in a degree of disconnection? ‘The Art and I’ will tour through rural towns, offering the opportunity for communities to experience contemporary art. It explores how exhibition techniques can draw from and address de-colonization. A series of experiential ideas about story-telling, spatial arrangement and customer immersion stimulating sensory pleasure were tested through multiple techniques. How could our everyday home[making] practice connect us to broader society? How can moments of introspection and contemplation be initiated through bodily encounters within a public space to form moments of inter-human relations? It seeks to provide the benefits of outdoor learning which contribute to children’s well-being. In an attempt to slow down our engagement with the world, this work emphasises the contemplative and in certain moments, an experience that might be described as sublime.
