Please note this late change to our previously advertised speaker.
The design of residential interiors in the 21st century is required to address exceptionally complex and sophisticated requirements from a diverse and well informed range of clients. Contemporary interior design successfully reappraises the boundaries between traditional notions of style, taste and function and may include the re-adaptation of historical style, a fresh interpretation of rustic charm or revised interpretations of carefully curated minimalism. This illustrated talk examines the portfolios of leading international practitioners, identifying emerging themes and ideas shaping the evolution of the residential interior.
