The Role of Pattern and Ornament in Interior Design Today
Explore how historical ornamentation traditions continue to shape and inspire contemporary interior design
Overview
A distinguished panel of three, each bringing a wealth of expertise in diverse realms including interior design, design history, gallery curation, and the broader realm of decorative arts, explore the role of ornamentation and pattern in interior design today and how historical ornamentation traditions continue to shape and inspire contemporary design.
This discussion draws inspiration from Adolf Loos’ essay Ornament and Crime and investigates the interplay between tradition and history in contemporary design, the preservation of cultural heritage and techniques, how young designers engage with tradition, and a contrasting perspective on redefining tradition.
