In this regard, interior architecture and design could provide a fundamental perspective to address this new issue if they were not constantly in need of theoretical framing to legitimize their interest in the field. In many cases, in fact, the conjunction between the terms “urban” and “interior” is still seen as a provocation, and the history of the different attempts through which interior disciplines have developed a design approach about the city, although now consolidated, is little known in its complexity. Therefore, this paper offers a critical and historical reading of the concept of “urban interiors,” both from a theoretical and an operative point of view, in order to trace the evolution of this line of investigation and envision its possible future developments. In doing so, it first analyses the different concepts of “interior urbanism” and “urban interiority” and describes the emergence and the evolution of the urban interior design approach. Then, it points out some shared features that characterize contemporary practices of “interior-making” within urban situations to eventually focus on the progressive disciplinary convergence with urban planning and design. The objective is to lay the foundation of a unified theoretical framework that could highlight the methodological contribution of interior disciplines to the urban construction.</p>","PeriodicalId":56199,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Interior Design","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2019-05-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1111/joid.12153","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48669213","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"艺术学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

By means of a 2-year project on public libraries (2014–2016), the coaches of the design studio initiated research into the changing role of public libraries and the societal embedding of interior architecture, as well as the empathic role of the designer. The article is based on data acquired by the use of various qualitative research techniques, such as focus group debates with the studio coaches, analysis of the coaching sessions with the students, and analysis of the comments of the expert jury in the first research year, supported by half-structured individual interviews with students in the second research year. Based on an initial explorative evaluation of this research project it is clear that the development of societal context awareness in students is hindered by three phenomena: an activated selective perception, a dominant comfort-zone reflex, and copy-cat behavior. The article subsequently reports on (a) the subject of the bachelor thesis (i.e. Flemish public libraries and their societal challenges), (b) the pedagogical design of the renewed bachelor thesis, (c) the ex-ante and ex-post perceived societal awareness of the students, and (d) an initial set of identified enablers and disablers of the learning process. The article concludes that interior educators should continue to invest in triggering and developing societal awareness in their students if the interior discipline aspires to “the social compact to do good.”</p>","PeriodicalId":56199,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Interior Design","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2019-05-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1111/joid.12152","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43464093","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"艺术学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In addition, the mismatch of reported male outperformance on general spatial ability tasks and absence of gender difference in design performance prompt questioning on whether interior design requires a specific type of spatial ability that general spatial ability tests may not sufficiently measure. Thus, the purpose of this study was to understand the details of spatial ability and their relationship with students’ interior design performance. In order to clarify the particular spatial proficiency required for interior design, the following test tools were used: (1) general spatial ability tests and (2) the Architecture and Interior design domain-specific Spatial Ability Test (AISAT), developed for this study. The spatial ability scores of 40 interior design majors at one university in South Korea were compared with the scores they received from three experts on design projects they completed. Results show that (1) 2D-to-3D visualization proficiency on the AISAT correlated with both the originality and three-dimensional quality of the design product, (2) 2D-to-3D visualization proficiency predicted both the originality and 3D quality of the design product, and (3) male outperformance was found only in general spatial ability.

Rather than replacing Christian worship with a secular program, the project aims to reactivate and strengthen the historical presence of spirituality by adding new layers to the design of this historic church. Using the singularity of the place and the quality of its rural landscape as catalysts, the proposed design seeks to place death and the act of mourning within a broader and renewed spiritual experience by borrowing and associating concepts related to rituals from different cultures and times. Besides a columbarium and a funeral space, the site may be used as a place for the celebration of life and its memory or simply as a meaningful place to meet with family or friends. The church, for which an adaptive reuse proposal is discussed in this paper, is one of many in Flanders that, in recent years, has lost its religious function as the result of the secularization of society.

As the destructive norms of contemporary society become less and less tenable, we are charged with developing creative, positive alternatives because, unless such alternatives are forthcoming, those yearning for something more in life, beyond material well-being, may be drawn to populist ideas that are often narrow, divisive, and sometimes violent.</p><p>I discuss the historical roots of our current malaise, which are in large part rooted in the modern era's abandonment of tradition in favor of predominantly rationalistic, technological, and economic notions of “progess”. In the process, experiential, intergenerational wisdoms, situated ways of knowing, and spiritual–religious practices became marginalized—practices that had long nurtured community cohesion and addressed life's big questions.</p><p>The importance of these more traditional ways of knowing, and their relationship to community and bigger questions of life's purpose and meaning are examined. Their relationship to creativity and the arts is also discussed. These areas of human knowledge and experience allow us to understand ourselves in relation to others and the world and they draw on intuitive apprehensions and the human imagination to develop deeper ways of being.</p><p>Today, in the face of so many social and environmental ills, the arts, including the applied arts, can draw on these other ways of knowing to help restore a more balanced approach to human endeavors, and to cultivate new directions for design. Through such means, the arts can explore more holistic and more hopeful horizons and offer glimpses of another reality.</p><p>Our lives have become exceptionally frenetic, overloaded and, at times, disorienting. While change is inevitable, the <i>pace</i> of change today is unprecedented. It is a function of our modern preoccupation with progress, innovation, and the future, and is driven by consumerism and the urge to secure continuous economic growth and ever-increasing profits. The way of life that results can be overwhelming, partly because of the sheer volume of information we must deal with daily, and partly because many services that were once common have disappeared. Whether booking a flight, making a bank transaction, or checking out groceries, it is now a case of “do it yourself”. We have to make innumerable minor decisions, but it is difficult to know if they are the right decisions and what overall effects they will have.</p><p>Along with these developments is another unprecedented phenomenon—a society that has turned its back on its own spiritual heritage. This is of consequence because the spiritual sensibility is strongly related to creativity and, also, its demise inhibits our ability to make wise decisions.
