Interior Design

Listen to the podcast now

As an interior designer, how do you enter and observe a space that’s unfamiliar to you, and what exactly do you “borrow” from the materials library? Students Daniela Zang and Cédric Metzger discuss these and other topics in the third episode of the podcast series “kaltwarmheiss.” In conversation with communication design student Pauline Heyne, they talk about the slight anxiety they felt at the beginning of their studies, the trials and triumphs of their projects, professors from all fields who broaden their horizons, and their development into highly sought-after interns in Berlin and around the world.
