The institutes of Fine Art and Design are now firmly linked by a wonderful atrium where possibilites seem endless. The Carpenters Workshop gallery, NextLevel Galerie, Ambika P3 and many others are blurring the boundaries, encouraging and offering designs objects in editions, in just the same way they would with contemporary sculpture. And frankly its about time, some 60 years ago Sotsass rebelled, "I didn't want to do any more consumerist products, because it was clear that the consumerist attitude was quite dangerous".
The Art and design disciplines have developed and matured, and are now at a level of understanding where interaction can take place, and maybe start to morph even more? 
This fresh philosophy is embraced by Ron Gilad, whose deconstructed arrangements question the world around us, just an artist does........."I’m basing my thinking, research, and creative process on what I see, know, and what already exists. Almost naively I ask the question, why is it like this?”
