DESIGNxRI Clambake Creative Conversation

What role does interior design play in shaping the way we live, work, gather, and feel? This edition of Clambake: Creative Conversations explores how the environments that surround us can influence our experiences, emotions, and sense of connection.

French philosopher Gaston Bachelard wrote, “The house shelters day-dreaming, the house protects the dreamer, the house allows one to dream in peace.” Building on this idea, the conversation will feature two interior designers whose work considers not only how spaces look, but how they make us feel and what they make possible.

Through their work, we’ll explore how interior design can create spaces for daydreaming, productivity, restoration, and community connection. From private homes to shared environments, the conversation will consider how designers respond to the needs, behaviors, and aspirations of the people who inhabit the spaces they create.

Join us for an evening of short talks and conversation as we explore how thoughtful interior design can shape everyday experiences and transform the spaces where we live.

Special thanks goes out to our event sponsors, Reflex Lighting and Best Tile for helping make this Clambake: Creative Conversation possible.

In August, we took a tour of the Roger Williams Park Produce Donation Garden with garden leaders Kim and Deb to see what they were harvesting! Sponsored by the @rwpbotanicalcenter and run by volunteer @urimastergardeners, this flourishing vegetable garden feeds the community by growing and donating fresh, organic produce to local food banks and kitchens, and serves as public education. 

They’re on track to grow over 3,500 pounds of food this year! 🍅🫑

The resourceful team of volunteers relies on help from the community. Visit the link in bio to learn more and see their wishlist of items ranging from lumber and hardware cloth to tools and supplies.

Stay tuned for part 2! 🌱
