The journal emphasizes the significance of cultural narratives and historical contexts in understanding interior spaces. It examines how different cultures and historical periods influence design practices and the meanings ascribed to various interior environments. - Interdisciplinary Approaches to Design:
The journal promotes interdisciplinary research, merging insights from architecture, design studies, sociology, and environmental psychology. This approach allows for a richer understanding of how interiors affect and are affected by human behavior and social dynamics. - Sustainability and Environmental Concerns:
A core focus of the journal is on sustainable design practices, environmental ethics, and biophilic design, reflecting a growing awareness of ecological issues within the field of interior design and architecture. - Innovative Spatial Practices:
The journal explores contemporary and innovative design practices, including the integration of technology and new materials in creating dynamic and adaptable interior spaces. - Community and Social Dimensions of Interiors:
Research published in the journal often addresses the social aspects of interiors, including community engagement, inclusivity, and the role of design in enhancing social interactions.
Trending and Emerging
- Ecological and Biophilic Design:
There is a notable increase in research exploring ecological design practices and biophilic principles, emphasizing the integration of nature into interior spaces to enhance well-being and sustainability. - Multispecies and Community Engagement:
Emerging studies focus on multispecies interactions within interior environments and the role of communal spaces in fostering social connections, reflecting a shift towards inclusive and participatory design. - Digital and Augmented Interiors:
The exploration of digital technologies and their impact on interior design is gaining traction, including discussions on virtual spaces and the implications of technology on user experiences. - Critical and Reflective Practices in Design:
A growing trend towards critical reflection on design practices is evident, with an emphasis on questioning norms and exploring the socio-political implications of interior environments. - Health and Well-being in Interior Design:
Research increasingly emphasizes the intersection of interior design with health and well-being, exploring how interiors can promote mental and physical wellness, particularly in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Declining or Waning
- Traditional Domestic Spaces:
There appears to be a diminishing emphasis on traditional domestic interiors, as contemporary research increasingly focuses on innovative and flexible living spaces rather than conventional home layouts. - Static Interior Design Concepts:
The journal has seen less focus on static or fixed design concepts. Instead, there is a growing interest in adaptable and fluid spaces that cater to changing user needs and lifestyles. - Historical Preservation of Interiors:
Although historical analysis remains important, the emphasis on the preservation of interiors as fixed entities has waned, giving way to discussions on the reinterpretation and transformation of historical spaces. - Gendered Spaces in Interior Design:
While gender dynamics in design were previously highlighted, there has been a noticeable decline in papers specifically addressing gendered spaces, as the discourse shifts towards broader societal impacts of design. - Luxury and Opulence in Interiors:
The focus on luxury and high-end design has decreased, with more emphasis being placed on equitable and sustainable design practices that prioritize accessibility and community needs.
