Because design is open-ended, there is no scientific method to determining the exact answer. Yet this is how ideas thrive; you can shake it up and see what comes out of your discovery process. This approach allows for broader thinking, inspiring the next generation of designers to be more in tune with the human condition.
All of this generative thinking is made possible through the studio experience, which is at the core of the Interiors program. From exploration to fabrication to writing to teamwork, the studio stands at the center for the student to build diverse thought as well as mental and creative agility.
The School of Interiors is a professional degree program accredited by the Council for Interior Design Accreditation (CIDA). This accreditation ensures professional training for entry into the practice of interior design and the educational foundation that will allow for professional testing (NCIDQ), certification or licensure at the individual state level.
