BA (Hons) in Environment and Interior Design

Description

The project explores spatial design through multiple religious, using dome and ceiling components as the primary design elements. Focusing on 8 religions, this project develops the side-by-side spatial expression of each religion confined to the qualities of ceiling and domes, whilst mixing material use, lighting conditions and color theory. Deriving inspiration from religions architecture, modernist and contemporary forms, new ceiling propositions are developed, focusing on the ceiling tectonics, disassociating the convention of the plan within the pantheon of world religions. By placing emphasis from the eye-level and upwards, ceiling and dome design takes on a contemporary feel, illustrating new material and spatial possibilities.
