Having spent many years in the commercial realm, Shelley’s research is now concerned with home making, in particular, how we make ‘home’ with the stuff we accumulate. She is interested in the social sciences, design anthropology and co-design. Her research aims to re-position Interior Design process as something more complex than an aesthetic or commercial venture, by drawing upon social anthropological data and theories, to create better spaces for people and their stuff.
Shelley is passionate about the education of young designers and is an active Chair of Engagement for Interior Educators, the subject association for Interior Design/Interior Architecture courses in the UK. She is also co-editor of pedagogic journal IE:Studio, which seeks to unveil the multi faceted and nimble process of Interior Design teaching, in Art School’s world wide.
