The subject of Space/Interior Design establishes itself at the interface between the subjective understanding of artistic expression and the social space created by the constant dialogue between the artist and society. The content of the studio is a series of assignments, allowing to learn the basics of architecture, interior design, site-specific installations, performances and related technologies.

The course of study also responds to the current blurring of boundaries between many artistic disciplines, previously seen as specialisms. Interdisciplinarity is given special importance here. Practical and theoretical mastery of such broadly understood practices of creative strategies presupposes a comprehensive knowledge of areas often described in very general terms such as "space", "interior", "human", "living space", "public space", "landscape".

In many ways, the teaching initially resembles variations on the composition of individual architectural elements, or the basics of physical exercises, but it moves very quickly through the art of installation in all conceivable environments and using all conceivable means and psychic colourings to address very specific tasks, such as addressing the interior or exterior of buildings of all kinds, including the human 'building' that can be the living body of the artist in contemporary society. The shaping of the boundaries of this process is limitless, and the studio can thus work with small architectural elements, the city, the landscape, public space and intimate spaces, such as private houses in particular, their interiors and the social relations within them. Some assignments will also help to realise visions of new forms of installation in the fields of museums, galleries and beyond.

Special emphasis is placed on the development of students' creativity, spatial imagination, and sense of perception of colour contexts along with concepts such as "harmony", "composition". All this together with a very sharp awareness of the clichés these categories are capable of reaching today. The student is thus comprehensively educated and able to orient and work well with the types and functions of artistic expressions that find their social applications - from history to the future. The result is a synthesis of the acquired knowledge in dealing with quite concrete situations in practice - on these a special emphasis is placed. As in all creative subjects at ADI, the ability to present one's artistic project in public, to address a target group, to formulate and defend ideas not only through one's own artistic work but also in an annotated speech is required.
