Course Units
At Level 1 (HE4), you’ll take three units, Exploring Principles and Theories, Exploration Through Experimentation, and Exploring Creative Practice. You’ll be introduced to the basics of interior spatial design and the built environment, through a series of creative exercises, evaluation, reflection and synthesis of ideas, practical output, and contextual studies.
Level 2 (HE5) covers all scales in three units, firstly Small: Detailed Spatial Understanding, followed by Medium: Design at a Human Scale, and then finally Large: Expanding Horizons. You will build on the basic principles learned in Level 1, and develop your knowledge and skills further to thoroughly investigate the world of interior spatial design.
At Level 3 (HE6) all students take Final Major Project, Critical Research, and Sustaining Your Practice. You’ll study Final Major Project and Critical Research together, combining everything you’ve learned throughout the program. Sustaining Your Practice is about preparing you for your life after study, enabling you to continue as a professional designer and using your degree in your hobbies and interests, or even to develop a new career.
