About the course
Design has a profound impact on society, and effective interior design has the potential to change the way we live our lives for the better.
At Cardiff Met, your studies will focus upon objects and their relationships with space, as well as the ways in which they create user experience.
By studying our BA Interior Design degree, you will learn the importance of sustainability and environmentally responsible design, tradition and heritage of place, aesthetics and materiality, as well as the impact design has on human experience and well-being.
Our undergraduate Interior Design course will equip you with a critical and contemporary understanding of interior space. These skills will allow you to remodel the past, create the present and inform the future.
You will undertake collaborative projects spanning a range of contexts, countries and cultures. You will explore and employ a range of technologies, critically engage with live briefs and real-world concerns as you develop your own design identity.
This will enable you to compose, visualise and simulate unique and individual environments, preparing you for your future.
