Disruptive
interiors
that reveal our
shortcomings
when dealing
with
unknown
surroundings.
Ingmar König (he/him) lives and works in Rotterdam, NL.
König is interested in the anticipation and vulnerability of humans entering unknown constructed environments.
He sees the interior and interface as interchangeable terms that overlap both the physical and digital realm.
He graduated cum laude from the Piet Zwart Institute, where he received his master's degree in Interior Architecture.
Before that he graduated with honours from his Bachelor of Fine Arts at the Utrecht School of the Arts.
Since 2021 he teaches at the Advertising & Beyond department of the Willem de Kooning Academy.
Parallel to König's practice he enjoys to help out with creative consulting, studio visits and lectures or presentations. Please get in contact for more details.
