Inside and outside is defined by the presence and absence of an enclosure.
This enclosure also separates the inside and outside from each other but is inseparable to both. This enclosure is 'designed' to meet a purpose. From the outside the 'enclosure design' is the building; from the inside it is an arrangement of interior spaces, whose design and spatial quality are a result of the enclosure design. 
The discussion will revolve around various aspects of this construction from various perspectives of art, craft and design.
