Description

Introduction to the craft and discipline of interior architecture through a broader introduction to the people, processes, principles and primary building elements surrounding built space. Core considerations: the role of the interior architect, the design, documentation and construction processes; the informants of design making including aesthetics, functionality and sustainability; structural principles; basic constructional assemblies. Emphasis is on the material, constructional and structural idea of structure, substrate and skin through studio based exercises and precedent studies.
