Course summary
Our design-led, studio based Interior Architecture course, is a member of Interior Educators, the National Learned Society for the subject, and provides you with the practical skills and specialist knowledge to work as an interior architectural specialist.
Through live and directed design projects, you will develop creative, intelligent and meaningful design proposals for existing buildings through investigation of the site. You will learn to control the relationship between the existing context and your proposed interior adaptation, supported by studies in design, communication, history and theory, construction technology, environment and management. You will take part in site visits within live projects and a European study trip to help contextualise and expand your learning.
How will I gain skills during my degree?
At the end of year 2, you can choose the option of an additional study abroad year, or complete the course as originally intended all of which are designed to enrich your experience as a subject specialist and as a global citizen. You will develop a creative portfolio of directed and self-directed design project work which will allow you to fully explore your interests within interior architecture and building adaptation, while fully expressing your ability as a designer and a future professional.
You will showcase your final project work at an exhibition here in Newcastle and as part of Interior Educators in London, to maximize your reach to industry. Successful graduates can progress onto our one semester Postgraduate Certificate in Interior Architecture course, which is professionally accredited and allows you to satisfy the ARB Part I criteria, when combined with undergraduate Interior Architecture study and Northumbria. This is the only course of its type and allows our graduates to achieve Part I status, as specialists in building adaptation and creative reuse.
What can I do after my BA Interior Architecture course?
With the opportunity to exhibit your portfolio to industry in Newcastle and London, this course is a springboard to a bright future in interior architecture.
In addition to secured positions in a range of leading architecture and design practices, our graduates are equipped to work within the broader creative fields, including exhibition and set design, retail design, design journalism, property development, building conservation and visualization.
