Corporate Design or CorpDes was an experimental immersive cinema that placed a visitor as an inspector of a mundane office to shine light on the negative culture of office life. By gathering 40+ students to rebel against a Critical Design course to question what boundaries can be pushed by a set of students, it made an educated and complex comment that traditional office life drains creative freedom out of individuals.
By acting in satire and developing a whole office from cardboard including a vending machine full of objects that aroused speculation on problems within office life including; Male Vs Female water cups priced in relation to the gender pay gap. Individuals were able to inoculate themselves within the mundane to highlight what is corrupt in existing office spaces.
