WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO DESIGN INTERIORS?

A private or public interior space, permanent or temporary, is a complex set of elements that determine the qualitative level of the relationship between individuals and the space itself.

Designing interiors means considering the shell of a space as a starting point for working inside of it, not only on the set-up and furnishing systems, but also on the whole range of intangible components that give the space a precise identity and generate different forms of relationship with users (light, color, texture, environmental comfort conditions, etc.).

Designing also means configuring and setting up new spaces, spatial devices that can take on the characteristics of installations, pavilions, different units with their own characteristics, autonomous and capable of clearly identifying public or private, internal and external places, adapting to the continuous and rapid evolution of the ways of contemporary living.
