If you don't know me yet, I'm Marc Muskens, born with a fanatical obsession for interior design! Together with my friend and business partner Sven van Buuren, I'm the owner of interior design firm Masters of Interior Design and we're the founders of The Institute of Interior Impact; with a community - as we speak - over 165.000 interior design professionals. It's a global Institute where we connect and train interior designers from around the world. I care a great deal about ‘how' it looks, but I'm even more interested in ‘why' it's looks like that. That's why we started this podcast: Beyond Interior Design. We will invite inspiring interior design experts that have a great story to tell and love to dig deeper. Of course we would like to surround ourselves in a beautiful environment, but the higher goal or purpose is creating designs that contribute: designed for the long term. Our environment has a huge impact on us as human beings. On how we live, how we work, how we play… how we act, react, behave… how we grow. Together we have the power to design this world. And in my opinion: Who has the power, has the responsibility. We are the #changemakers of the world. We have always been, through all of humanity. Look at the Egyptian empire, the pyramids. And what about the Roman empire? More than 2000 years later, people still come to Rome to admire the might and strength of Roman architecture and design. And it all started with an idea… Every single building started with an idea, a sketch from a creative mind. We can ‘decide' to make a change.So, what does the interior design future look like? Together we can shape it. We have the power to not only shape our own future, but the future of the world we live in. As you know, change comes in waves. Sometimes rapidly and sometimes slowly. Well… the world around us is changing rapidly, we know that! But does our profession?We're going to explore exiting combinations of interior design and health, interior design and technology, psychology, sustainability, culture, nature, entrepreneurship and for sure other sometimes unknown areas. We're going to fly high and dive deep. And straight through if we have to. Are you ready to discover the world Beyond Interior Design? Go to: beyondinteriordesign.CLUB
