About

The Bachelor of Interior Design (residential) engages you with diverse theoretical and practical elements of designing residential interiors. You will discover the impact the selection of materials, lighting, joinery and furniture can have on your design, and explore technologies such as artificial intelligence and interactive audio-visual systems.

This course teaches you environmentally sustainable practices while you investigate the finer details of interior design, such as fittings and fabrics, as well as societal issues which include our aging population, homelessness, evolving gender roles and the definition of family. From a practical point of view, you will make residential environments a reality through documentation, contract management, professional design practice and cross-disciplinary interaction.

Learning outcomes:

  • Create future-ready living solutions that embrace new technologies.
  • Work with 3D-modelling software to design residential environments.
  • Explore the impact of joinery, materiality and finishes to meet client needs.
