What is so special about this course?

You will learn how to best balance function and appeal in the usage of any given space. Not only should your designed space look good, it also needs to function efficiently. Through your many hands-on, problem-based creative projects, you will learn about colours, materials, lighting, media, shapes and forms. You will use these and other tools to shape a specific space while considering the requirements of the project. The course will also hone your ability to communicate ideas through a wide range of presentation media, as very often in the real world, you will have to work with a variety of clients with different needs.

  • The first interior design diploma in a polytechnic with an illustrious history and alumni.
  • Interdisciplinary course encompasses elements of space design, architecture and range of wide related studies, hence offers excellent employment prospects and career opportunities.
