Our interior design course nurtures the ability to rethink existing interiors as well as looking at the spaces created between structures. It focuses on the way people interact within these environments.
This degree programme will make you explore the regeneration and adaptation of real buildings and sites and learn how to turn old commercial premises into exciting new spaces for exhibition, retail, leisure, eating and socialising purposes. Throughout the course you will develop skills in drawing, 3D modelling, computing, video-modelscope and computer-aided design (CAD).
On this course you will learn about the importance of visual communication, design cultures and heritage, culture and context. This solid foundation will enable you to develop your own personal style and design language and, as you grow in confidence, you’ll become increasingly autonomous as you pursue individual design projects
You may incur additional costs during your education at the University over and above tuition fees in an academic year such as laptops, Stationary and additional resources.
