Foundations in Interior Architecture, Interior Architecture Design Studio 1 introduces students to the foundational principles, theories, and methods of interior architecture. By exploring ideas of performative spaces and urban interiors, students develop a detailed understanding of interior and spatial design methods and making practices by creatively engaging with Sydney’s metropolitan, social, and cultural environments. This includes developing wearable designs to intervene in urban environments through explorations of materials, model-making, ergonomics, and human factors, as well as cultivating site-responsive spatial installations that challenge people’s perceptions and ways of occupying existing public interiors of the city.
