On 23 November, Disegno invited the architect Alison Brooks, interior architect and designer Ab Rogers, and furniture designer Jon Harrison to come together for The Future of Public Spaces, a panel talk devoted to discussion of interior public spaces.
Why do we associate exteriors with public space and interiors with private? This question was one of the starting points for a discussion that ranged across the nature of public space; fears over privatisation of space; and methods of working with developers to ensure a higher standard of public space in cities.
The panel was assembled to provide a cross-section of design professions. Brooks is a Stirling Prize winner; Rogers the former head of the Royal College of Art's Interior Design programme; and Harrison a designer whose practice Faudet Harrison recently completed the Designers in Residence exhibition space in the new Design Museum. Each panellist drew on their individual expertise to speculate on how society's relationship with public space and interiors is likely to change in the coming years.
The Future of Public Spaces was hosted at Moooi's London showroom and chaired by Disegno's editor-in-chief Oli Stratford. We are delighted to share a film shot at the event which shows an edited version of the discussion.
