Spatial Tales of Unearthly Critters

Spatial Tales of Unearthly Critters assembles research-led design projects by students from the Master Interior Architecture: Research + Design (MIARD). Produced in a the-
matic design studio led by Cookies, each project responds to the potential for monstrosity to become a critical framework for spatial practice by disengaging dominant design
standards and modes of thinking. The characters and their stories are rooted in factual issues that use fiction as a space for imagination and collaborative world-building.

My role was the art direction of the publication and the editorial design. For this book, I find inspiration in the heteroclite results of various Chimeras. Exploring the unexpected energy derived from the content, I aim to use unusual material combinations to weave a narrative that challenges conventional notions of beauty and ugliness. My goal was to infuse an element of surprise, inviting readers to witness the unconventional and reinterpret established codes.
