Interior Design

This program is all about the art or process of designing the interior decoration of a room or building, and how we experience spaces and the objects in them. It’s a powerful, essential part of our daily lives that affects how we live, work, and play. Exciting recreational environments, unique domestic spaces, functional workplaces, inspiring retail spaces—that’s interior design at work. This award-winning program, which has strong links with industry, is based on three areas of study. In Design Fundamentals, you’ll engage in a fundamental and developmental study of design practice through a wide variety of studio projects. In Design Communications, you’ll develop your visualizing skills (subjects include Computer-Aided Design, Drawing, and Design Realisation). In Critical Theory, you’ll learn about the key issues in the history and theory of design. In Years 2 and 3, you can broaden your visual education in optional modules from the Fine Art and Visual Communication areas. In your Design Thesis in the final year, you’ll present a systematic, structured solution to a challenging design problem. Graduates find work in design practices, architectural firms, furniture manufacturing firms, display and exhibition companies, and as private designers.
