Advanced Design Inquiry
The first semester establishes the critical, conceptual and technical foundations of the MA. Through Advanced Interior Architecture Concepts and Advanced Textile and Lighting Techniques, students explore contemporary approaches to spatial design, materiality, textiles, lighting and human experience. Studio-based projects and research-led inquiry encourage experimentation, critical reflection and the development of a personal design methodology, preparing students to address increasingly complex interior architecture challenges with creativity, confidence and professional awareness.
- Advanced Interior Architecture Concepts
Explore advanced theories, methodologies and contemporary approaches to interior architecture through research-led design. Develop your own critical design philosophy while investigating spatial narratives, adaptive reuse, sustainability and human-centred environments. This module challenges you to think beyond aesthetics, creating meaningful spaces that respond to complex cultural, environmental and social contexts.
- Advanced Textile & Lighting Techniques
Investigate how materials, textiles and lighting influence atmosphere, perception and spatial experience. Through experimentation and technical exploration, you will develop innovative material strategies that combine aesthetics, functionality and sustainability, learning how sensory qualities can transform the way people interact with interior environments.
