Bdes (hons) Interior & Spatial Design
Michael Nicholson
The Loud Silence
My design sees a historic building become a ‘creative venue’ for the fashion designer Harris Reed. It has a design studio, showcase event space, a gallery a cafe and a bar. The project seeks to diminish gender stereotypes through the Deconstruction of design and the creation of a non-binary space.
The video to ‘The Loud Silence’ - shows my complete process of major project
Public Intervention - designed to disrupt the ordinary. Adding a sense of self to a space
My physical being that was a major influence throughout the project. The graphic is the eye into my project/space.
