Remodel, redesign, and reinvent the spaces of the future.
Interior Architects shape the spaces we inhabit, working to design functional, accessible, stimulating and sustainable environments. Driven by a people-centred approach to designing spaces, you will work to enhance the quality, wellbeing and needs of those that inhabit and interact within them.
The programme sits within the Architecture and Designed Environments department, benefitting from ongoing collaboration with Architects, Interior Designers and Architectural Design Technologists. Interior Architecture benefits from cutting-edge research and applied practice in sustainable and inclusive design.
You will focus on the adaptation, reuse, remodelling and augmentation of pre-existing spaces. With a focus on sustainability, you will explore approaches to creating both permanent and temporary design solutions. Comprehensive facilities will ensure that you develop a rich creative and technical architectural language, ranging from sketching to data-rich immersive digital simulations.
Your studio-based practice will include critical theory, exploration, and a variety of briefs. You will work with industry and the wider sector to explore the relationships between places and spaces, and the values of the communities that use them. You will investigate the responsible and thoughtful use of materials, structures and spaces, to propose innovative and sophisticated solutions to the problems of the future. As part of this degree, you will undertake interdisciplinary learning experiences that are designed to shape you into an adaptable 21st century graduate.
