Daniela-Francesca Belean I am an enthusiastic Interior Designer whose focus is sustainability and model making. As a Designer, I understand the importance of sustainability and prioritising the planet so I focus on creating as little impact on the environment as I can through my designs. As for my design process, it has become apparent, through my years at university, that I think through making. So, I have a great passion for creating models, whether it is simple concept models or detailed final models.
The Beauty in Being Broken I am designing a Wellbeing Centre that focuses on allowing people to let out their emotions in a safe space. According to the opponent process theory, if you experience a strong emotion that is instantly followed by another, opposing, strong emotion, it offers a more pleasurable feeling. I have applied this theory to my project by designing a smash room, where people can let out their anger by destroying old, recycled objects, immediately followed by a calming workshop environment, where they can turn the broken pieces into something new. The aim is to show that there is beauty in being broken.
