Best Implemented Interior Design Project Using Works of Art
About the project
Riverlight Quay, a building built by Rogers Strik Harbour + Partners has a striking exterior that overlooks the Thames River. However, the interior design of the building lacked multiple elements and was done for a build to rent scheme which resulted in various inadequacies. As a previous tenant in the property, I experienced the difficulties that the space encounters, especially with the sharp edged rooms. After talking with the landlord I managed to convince him to redesign the place adding both value and convivence to the space.
For the interior, I picked the impressive digital art work of Aykut Aydogdu. His unique style creating surreal digital art compliments the modern contemporary style of the interior furniture pieces. Sculpture of a black marble Lady Sitting statue is a reminiscent of Rodin's famous The Thinker. What I was after is an overall creative art composition utilising different art pieces from various sectors in the creative industry, from the choice of painting, sculpture to the furniture.
