Confessions

The personal journeys behind every great space,
told by the world’s leading designers.

The personal journeys behind every great space, told by the world’s leading designers.

“Confessions” speaks about the designer’s personal perspective by the in-depth exploration of the secrets behind the creation of spaces of gran¬deur, intimacy, comfort, fluidity, freedom and power.

Design is seen as an act of spatial manipulation to produce a specific experience. The user gets then in contact with the intentions of the designer.

By questioning the personal thoughts, memories and experiences, we want to reveal the key motives, desires and passions that shaped the unique signature of a designer.
When explained from the designer’s human perspective, cultural background and professional experience, spatial design principles are made accessible to a broader audience.
