Course Overview

On UCA’s BA (Hons) Interior Decoration and Styling course you’ll become a confident Interior Decoration and Styling professional with specialist knowledge of sustainable materials specification and contemporary design visualisation. Based in UCA Canterbury’s School of Architecture and Design, you’ll have the freedom to establish your own unique specialisms, such as materials specification and performance, or brand-led style composition and photography, and you will develop your own highly individualised design identity and style. Along the way you’ll have access to advanced forms of fabrication and testing, the latest scanning and VR technology, and a suite of traditional craft-based workshops, photography studios, and print facilities, all of which will allow you to bring your design proposals to life. You’ll learn from our team of expert academics and industry professionals and enjoy collaborative opportunities with students on our other courses, such as product and furniture design, and interior architecture. Through exploring real briefs and contexts, you’ll have the chance to engage with and show your work to established practitioners, and on graduation, you will become part of the school’s expanded network of mentors and career advisors. As part of the course, you'll benefit from interaction with industry through live project opportunities, masterclasses, and optionally - professional work experience placement, if you choose the Professional Practice Year pathway – building industry-relevant skills to ensure that you graduate ready for the workplace.
