Last Friday, March the 23rd, second graders of Interior Design visited Casa Decor Madrid, in its 53rd edition. In this exhibition students learned and enjoyed the spaces designed by prominent interior designers, as well as saw works by the best decorators and signatures of habitat, luxury and lifestyle.
This year, the decorative arts have been shown through traditional crafts that recover artistic expressions such as ceramics, mural painting or fine work of glass. Specifically, our students have seen how there is a trend towards “Arts & Crafts”, a movement that promoted crafts and decorative arts at the end of the 19th century.
We must also highlight the location of this edition of Casa Decor, which was in a 3200m2 building that represents the eclectic Madrid architecture of the early twentieth century, at the neighborhood of Chamberí. This space allowed the students to see these innovative proposals installed in the places that correspond to them and not through catalogs.
