Yes / Many hundreds of Bronze Age bronze artefacts are known from excavations in Switzerland, yet the interpretation of production networks from the object find locations remain problematic. It is proposed that the decorative elements used on items, such as ring-jewellery, can be used as elements to assist in the identification of artisanal traditions and ‘schools’, and also regional or community preference and selection of specific designs. Combining the analysis of over 1700 items of ring-jewellery from Switzerland with approaches from network science has facilitated the identification of regional clustering of design elements, comparable with cultural typologies in the area. It is also possible to identify potential instances of cultural differentiation through decoration within the broader regional cultural traditions. The study highlights important facets of bronzework production in the region of Switzerland, while also demonstrating future potential directions which could build upon the European wide dataset of prehistoric bronzework. / Primary research conducted under previous funding at University of Basel, Switzerland – SNF grant

D. Tech. Interior Design / Work integrated learning at the Tshwane University of Technology (TUT) is an integrated approach to teaching and learning for the attainment of qualifications. It specifically encourages and enhances learning partnerships between all role players, which include students, university staff and employers. The university perceives itself to be in partnership with commerce and industry in the development and delivery of high-level human resources who will uniquely contribute to the South African economy. It is important to acknowledge that the Interior Design management model for work integrated learning will in future form a division of the management practice at the TUT. The regular communication, exchange of information and asking for support in connection with a design problem or knowledge about a finishing material, between the Interior Design departments and the industry is of vital importance to support and distribute new design drawing techniques, new innovative design ideas and sharing knowledge with students and staff alike. The specific demands in the industry determined the management model for work integrated learning for the Interior Design qualification. Work integrated learning lies between the curriculum of Interior Design and the workplace. It is, therefore, important to develop a thoughtful management model to develop the area in-between the curriculum and the knowledge the students absorb during studying the Interior Design qualification and the real-life, work-based placement in the industry.

Este trabalho consiste no estudo sobre a utilização dos estilos vintage e retrô nos arranjos domésticos, considerando a ordem decorativa, as relações entre moda e decoração, os significados atribuídos aos artefatos, a construção e a representação de identidades. A pesquisa tem como objetivo compreender as características do vintage e do retrô, explorar suas maneiras de apropriação e constituição enquanto estratégias para a personalização dos ambientes domésticos. Tem como principais fontes os discursos encontrados nas revistas Casa Claudia e Casa e Jardim, especializadas em decoração, publicadas no período de 2002 a 2011. Nas reportagens, tanto os textos quanto as imagens são recursos importantes para a compreensão dos tipos de arranjos caracterizados como vintage, cuja principal propriedade está no uso de artefatos do passado, ou como retrô, classificados como objetos que se aproveitam de recursos tecnológicos atuais, mas que remetem ao passado. Através de algumas reportagens veiculadas, pretendo discutir a importância da cultura material como recurso para a construção de modelos de estilo de vida. Embora o discurso das revistas privilegie o entendimento do vintage e do retrô como formas de personalização e expressão das individualidades, quero destacar seu caráter social e cultural, evidenciando o conjunto de regras e significados que regulam suas formas de uso. / This work is a study on the use of vintage and retro styles in domestic arrangements, considering the decorative order, the relationship between fashion and interior design, the meanings attributed to artifacts, the construction and representation of identities. The research aims to understand the characteristics of the vintage and retro, explore their ways of appropriation and constitution as strategies for customizing home environments. Its main sources discourses were found in Casa Claudia and in Casa e Jardim magazines, specializing in decoration, published between 2002-2011. In the reports, both the texts and images are important features for understanding of the types of arrangements characterized as vintage, whose main property is the use of artifacts from the past, or as retro, classified as objects that take advantage of current technological resources, but that refer to the past. Through some articles published, I intend to discuss the importance of material culture as a resource for building models lifestyle. Although the discourse of magazines favors the understanding of vintage and retro as forms of customization and expression of individuality, I want to highlight their social and cultural nature, showing the set of rules governing their meanings and forms of use.
