The aim of this 12-month Master's programme is to engage you in creative and experimental processes and to enhance your ability to grasp complex design ideas. The programme has a clear hands-on approach which aligns with the 'making' ethos of the School. Live projects, competitions and field trips make this programme a unique life-changing experience.Design of any scale responds to - and in parallel leads - cultural and social change. Our everyday living changes rapidly. The changing demographics, and the emergence of new technologies, shift the way in which we inhabit, use and share spaces.Through our MA in Interior Design programme, we address some of the above questions in a rigorous, experimental and creative manner. Through a fun and hands-on approach, we will debate and challenge one another on some of the most current and 'hot' design-related questions.You will learn through a series of design exercises. You will experiment through trial and error. You will develop rigorous design proposals for specific sites. You will redesign interventions for existing spaces, you will propose temporary structures, and you will make models of different materials to test design concepts. The programme will be taught in small groups, in a studio format. Exercises will include both individual and group work.On the completion of this course, you will have developed both advanced design skills and the experience to develop yourself advanced creative design methods and processes. You will be ready to work as an interior designer in a range of design-related industries, such as retail design, stage set design, exhibition design, etc. Through our links with external partners, organisations, and galleries, we organise exhibitions of our students work in prominent venues in London. Our ambition is that you will become the leaders of the interior design discipline of tomorrow.
