Studio for Immediate Spaces

The two-year programme proposes an alter- native take on the academic field of interior architecture education and research, exceed- ing the boundaries of its traditional curric- ulum. The multidisciplinary environment of SIS is a platform for debate, opening up new terrains and allowing for the development of independent practices. Here exploration fuses with reflection; design is an instrument of research, research is an instrument of discovery. We provide the tools for inquisitional investigation and for the production of the contemporary space, the one that receives full face the darkness beam of our present times. Design methodologies focus on urban investigations and building processes, promoting a hands on approach and DIY culture as means of emancipation, celebrating craftsmanship and the immediacy of space making.
