Research interests
Dr Ersi Ioannidou is Senior Lecturer in Interior Design and PGR Student Director for The Design School at Kingston University. A member of the Modern Interiors Research Centre, her research investigates the modern meaning of the minimum dwelling. In particular, she examines how this notion has been shaped by two interconnected developments: the emergence of the domestic interior as a personal project and the rise of the machine as a design paradigm. Her current work—reflecting a longstanding fascination with space travel—explores real and fictional space interiors, the utopian domestic architectures of the 1960s and 1970s, and interior environments in science-fiction film.
