Interior Design

Reid Building, 30 students

Interior Design students approach to discipline is characterised by their approach to the studio as a space of creative imagination, discussion and collaboration. This year, our graduates have produced a body of work that is sensitive and thorughful in approach, and which uses creativity and experimentation to explore the potential and value of the spaces that we inhabit. This year’s cohort have chosen buildings in Glasgow, which speak to the history of the city and also its social fabric, embracing experimental approaches to the concept of urban regeneration.

The first interior space you will experience on the Voyage Retreat is the lobby. A vast space with a double heighted area in the centre for the installation to go through. The sculpture installation creates a soothing yet grand atmosphere in the space. It acts as an exhibition as well as a way-finding tool in the centre of deck 3 and 4. Around this is the reception desk with a surface all the way around. The desk is made from plywood but has a shiny, marble effect vinyl finish on top. To the side of the desk is the central staircase to take you up to deck 4. The glass staircase wraps around the installation and brings you to the mezzanine. The lobby is at the centre of the cruise as the resturant and cabins come off it. There is seating in the lobby for you, the guests, to relax and enjoy the central hub of the ship.

from Deck 3

As the conical installation continues over the 2 decks, it gets wider towards the ceiling of Deck 4. The inspiration for the shape of the sculpture come from the iconic traffic cone on the Duke of Wellington statue in Royal exchange square. Taking the traffic cone and turning it upside down to create a funnel shape. This means the sculpture on deck 3 will be narrow and gradual spread out to the ceiling where the material will continue to mimic the base of the cone Materials: Stainless steel wire rope will be used to at the main structural material element and make up the conoid shape. In between the wire will be a mix of blue and clear tinted film to make the scalloping texture and pattern of the sculpture. Down the centre of the funnel shape wil be LED lights that dim on and off at different times to achieve the light changing and ‘sparkling’ effect. This central area is mainly a transitional and exhibitional space to get from one floor to the other and one end of the ship to the other. The mezzanine is made safe with a round glass bannister and wooden handrail. To celebrate the central installation, the Observation bar spills out around the mezzanine.
