Hunting for exciting, inspirational interiors for this blog I chanced upon these pictures of an exhibition in Munich, Germany, entitled the Third Space. Some quick stats about it, just for the record: It was, the description says, the work of 52 interior design students who built it from one million, three hundred thousand cable ties in a space of two hundred square metres, and it took them sixteen thousand eight hundred and seventy hours. Goodness. Phew.
My daughter and I were at an Easter art session this week - theme was art inspired by nature. And this art too is a dream that's sprung from nature. People who experienced it must have tasted life as tiny people in a giant garden.
So I was searching for an exciting, inspirational interior and instead you got this - not an 'interior' but an 'installation'. And that's my point - so-called interiors tend to be, well, just plain banal. If only 'interiors' achieved this level of fantasy. Interiors versus installations? Give me installations every time! What do you think?
