The Architecture Symposium: Out of Office
Stories of experimentation and lessons from site. Curated by Clare Kennedy and John Ellway.
Claire Markwick-Smith is an interior, spatial and object designer based in South Australia. With a bachelor of Interior Architecture, Claire started her career in hospitality based interior design, working on projects both nationally and internationally. Claire’s practice extended into object design after a year-long residency in metal fabrication and object design with Fab Workshop (formerly George Street Studios).
Influenced by her interior design background, Claire’s object design practice focuses on composition, construction processes and materiality. Being heavily involved in the fabrication processes of both her object and interior practice, Claire applies these learnt principles and knowledge to all aspects of her design process, exploring the aesthetic influence this has on her work.
