Course details

No longer is it enough to just learn how to make personal or work spaces functional and beautiful. The newly-improved Diploma in Interior Architecture & Design goes a step further into the world of collaborative social design. If you've ever thought about people-centric architectural design, to define and shape spaces, then this is the course for you.

Over three years, build and layer your knowledge and skills through five core clusters - Foundation, Tectonics & Technology, Contextual Place-making, Trends & Issues and Assembly & Materiality. From here, you will develop a deeper understanding of issues and constraints, and cultivate an innate sensitivity to shapes, forms, branding, materials that will result in thoughtful, human-centric and holistic solutions to design conundrums.

There are many opportunities to work on real 'live' industry projects and intern with reputable industry names such as Ong & Ong, SCDA, Aedas, FARM, DP Architects, DBS, Google Asia, M.Moser, HBA and many more. You will be guided and mentored by tutors who will help you understand the mechanics and thought behind good sound architectural design while encouraging you to constantly push the envelope in creative expression and execution of the projects you work on. Studio culture is alive and well in the School of Design. Here, learning takes place in bright and airy studios where new ideas and possibilities in spatial design are shared and explored. Overseas trips, student exchanges and opportunities to network with industry leaders provide the extra value in the learning experience offered in the course.
