The journal presents the discourses on interiority from multiple perspectives in various design-related disciplines: architecture, interior design, spatial design, and other relevant fields. The idea of interiority emphasises the internal aspects that make and condition the interior, which might be understood and manifested through the users’ inhabitation, through the materiality of objects and built environment as well as through specific methods and approaches of design practice. The journal addresses the idea of interiority as both experienced and practised, which might be examined through theoretical discussion, spatial design practice and empirical interior research. Authors are invited to submit articles that address the questions of interiority in a wide range of interior context, which may include but not limited to: domestic and urban interior, personal and collective interior, contemporary and historic interior, global and indigenous interior. The journal also provides an open forum for discussing various aspects of localities that celebrate interior in specific socio-cultural contexts where particular ideas of interiority might originate and further extend. Submissions are also invited in the forms of reviews of books, projects and exhibition that are intended to challenge and extend the ideas of interiority.

Abstract

This study investigates the Shishinden, the principal ceremonial hall of the Kyoto Imperial Palace, as a site where spatial hierarchy, ritual movement, and material atmosphere converge to construct a unique form of interiority. Rather than treating the hall merely as a stylistic or historical artifact, the paper analyses how interior experience is actively produced through embodied ritual practices, symbolic spatial organisation, and sensory orchestration. By focusing on the interaction between architecture, politics, and cultural cosmology, the study demonstrates how the Shishinden functions as an affective interior that communicates imperial authority and sacred order. The findings contribute to contemporary interiority discourse by highlighting how ritual space can operate as both a physical and symbolic system of meaning.
