This conference seeks to explore the history and contemporary practice of the making of the modern interior. It will reconsider the developing role of the architect, interior designer and interior decorator in relation to both professionalised practice and the role of the ‘amateur’. Papers are invited from both theorists and practitioners of interior design.

The conference is organised by The Centre for the Study of the Design of the Modern Interior.

Abstracts of 300 words accompanied by a brief curriculum vitae, should be submitted by Friday 6th January 2006 to e.ferry@kingston.ac.uk
