Paul Cocksedge's?Auditorium?uses a?virtually invisible material to redefine the way we see and define a confined space. This display was originally part of the?100% Design Show at Earls Court during the 2012 London Design Festival.
Paul explains: "The Auditorium has given me a chance to work with things that on the surface seem mutually exclusive: open/shut, inside/outside, solid/transparent… The partition marks the Auditorium's border, but what defines that border is that you can see and hear and even reach through it…"
While moving away from the mundane walls that are normally used to define an area, Paul works with?delicately hand-woven materials and thin tubes of neon light to subtly grab attention and showcase what is inside the space.
His transparent spider web designs provide not only an invisible wall but the feeling that there is no beginning and no end to these?exterior and interior spaces.
