University of Gloucestershire, United Kingdom

Course Overview

Interior Architecture & Design is a distinct course with a specific focus on creating and carving exciting spaces for both new and existing buildings. The course spans between larger scale architecture and smaller scale interior design elements. You will develop and design projects with a focus on the themes of events, activities and user-experience – taking inspiration from Cheltenham’s renowned reputation for festivals.

Sustainability is inherently embedded within the course, not only through the notion of reuse and refurbishment, but also from a wider environmental, social and community perspective.

You will work in local, national and international environments and at varying scales – ranging from a wide urban scale, down to the nuts-and-bolts of how architectural elements are assembled. You will be experimenting with and learning a variety of tools to design with – from drawing to model making, and from manual to digital techniques. You will become pioneers at the forefront of interior architecture, adopting emerging technologies and approaches to designing – such as 3D printing, virtual reality (VR) and practice led conventions.

The Interior Architecture & Design course is designed to equip you with both the practical skills and professional knowledge required to pursue a career in interior architecture and a wide range of other design-related disciplines.
