    About

    Transform spaces through innovative design, while developing your unique design identity through collaborations with industry experts.

    Overview

    On this course, you’ll explore how users experience and interact with spaces to create meaningful, immersive environments. The programme emphasises human-centred design, and we’ll inspire you to rethink and regenerate existing interiors and challenge conventional ideas of space. You’ll reimagine spaces such as art galleries boutique hotels and retail units to make them more functional, comfortable, usable, aesthetically-pleasing and emotionally-impactful.

    The curriculum has been developed to provide flexibility and individuality, enabling you to explore subject areas that align with your interests and passions. Your unique design identities will be nurtured and you’ll be encouraged to harness your strengths and creativity within a supportive studio culture.
