David Netto: “Designing Interiors (The Part They Forgot to Tell You About)”
Вставка
- Опубліковано 25 чер 2024
- Architecture, landscape, urbanism . . . we are at the Harvard Graduate School of Design, which takes an enlightened and comprehensive view of “designed” environments and how they interrelate. But-David Netto GSD ’97 asks-how many of you have ever been taught how to make a furniture plan? How to light a room? The secrets of proportion and texture, and the breaking of rules in animating an interior? These are questions Netto has never found a satisfactory answer to in school-any school; one only learns about them from experience in the workplace. The practical truth is that how a project is perceived is key to how it is received-and essential to whether or not it gets published, written about, and given a fair trial after its transition from an abstract hypothetical to real life.
Netto has worked as an interior designer for decades and has written about architecture and design history for just as long. He professes to have learned as much from writing about the work of others as from formal education in design. His latest book is about the French designer François Catroux, who since 1968 has innovated and excelled in a career of nearly fifty years with no formal design education whatsoever (he credits Philip Johnson as a formative influence and is presently working with Diller Scofidio & Renfro on an apartment in New York). In the course of his talk, Netto will address the importance of interiors in the success of architecture and his observations on how this gets accomplished, based on what he has learned in his work as a design journalist.
Do yourself a favor and begin watching at 5:48. The guy's introduction is an excruciating example of "More is a snore". Longest 5 hours, er - minutes in memory.Sheesh!
Factual error after 35:00 in the description of why red is important in representing Russian identity, very disappointing in this level of a speaker. It is true that red is a very important color for Russian identity. It is not, however, because of the factory in Kiev, dating 19th century, and not because of the British uniforms. The tradition of using red in Russian folk costume, utensils, interior fabrics and as decorative elements of exterior of wooden buildings is way older than 19th century, many centuries older. There are many examples from both southern and northern Russia to prove that. This tradition is so old in fact, that it is reflected in the language itself. In Russian "beautiful" - красивый is derived from the word "red" - красный. Makes me think what other types of factual information is carelessly misrepresented by the speaker in a similar manner.
Thank you for the clarification. Even to my untrained ears the information sounded too pat. Colonialist revision.
As a production designer I loved his talk. It was so personal just like good design.
Suddenly racism exists when it’s convenient for you right wingers 🙄
Great work explaining this designs. Exceptionally interesting.
He talks about the style of designs that cost no money. The stereotype of interior design is that it's expensive, like hiring somebody to help you pick a good brand of caviar.
It is but it is also a space for luxury
Hä. He has no clue about small rooms most people especially in cities live in. of course it's about money and rich people
Was this lecture held in a freezer?
Yes. That's what they do there.
oh my lawwdd!!!! hahahahaha
😏
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
It could’ve been funny, but why overheat when you can wear a jacket ?
Super good.thank you!!
Cant take this guy seriously w the way he’s dressed
Cambridge, MA can get cold and it can take time for interior spaces to catch up. Personally, I wear a down vest under everything, from mid October forward.
me too, several layers from dec 1
Wow didn’t notice! You would think it would be a bit warmer indoors
This was great!
Great examples here! thank you for this. I wish i went an interior design school though. Too late for me now.
Not too late.
Never too late! I am going to start next year and I’m 40!
I'm eleven, I'm planning
Why too late?
Great, thank you!
This is good.
Character and space.....📓✏
Great stuff
I wish you good luck if you are looking for inspiration to design your own is very professionals are the best because they do an outstanding job.
Likewise
What da hell does he have on…red bubble jacket under a suit? 😳. Did I miss a fashion memo???!!!
I get really cold. Maybe he does too.
🙏
very contrived.
Thank uu
Wow - turning down the lights on this talk was a huge disservice to us watching on You Tube. It makes me feel very uncomfortable.
Professor Hildebrand is so cliche and just loves to hear himself talk.
Harvard GSD needs a new A/V guy badly. Just listen to that mic, it's unbearable. A school like that should have a perfectionist running the A/V at these events. I mean how much are they paying the speaker to be there and then they sound like hell.
indeed very poor quality. like a cheap magazine.
How can I take a guy who wears a down vest under his sport coat seriously?????
A: Trick Question. You can't.
Just listen.
This guy is showing a lot of stuff but has no focus.
this guy is great in techniques and design but not good in decoration.They all look cheap
all interior designers no matter how good they seem have some projects we don't like. I think this david netto guy has quite some gorgeous works, the ones I dont like that much are just unappealing, it dont think they come off as "cheap"
lmao
David is not trying too hard to be fashionable. OK? Just get that out of your mind and focus on the content.
@RakeRocter lmao and mostly that
O, ok 🤭
Wtf is this guy wearing
In the dark, so bizarre! Interior designer? Very disheveled looking individual!
