The Great Indoors Award 2007
15 till 17 November 2007In 2007, the theme of international biennial THE GREAT INDOORS AWARD was 'Branded by Space': the increasingly dominant position of interior design on the private and public domain.
Every interior has to make an immediate impact, reflecting the identity of the organization it represents. In doing so, interiors are having a stronger and stronger influence on discussions involving public space. Seen in this light, interior architecture is assuming an increasingly dominant position within the realm of design. The Great Indoors 2007 explores this growing influence of interior design on the private and public domain.
