Interior Design at the Royal Academy of Art( RAA) provides you with the opportunity to develop and enhance your skills as a good designer and to master the discipline of interior design. The emphasis is placed on the students’ development of skills, as well as the discovery and articulation of their own fascination, preferences and personal artistic style. The function of an interior architect encompasses the entire scope of the interior space, including architectural style and especially the functional aspect of the space in which the final user plays a significant role.
Moreover, it does not only concern the design, but also the vision of the space, the amount of detail, the materials used and the coherence of all these factors implemented in your design.
Once you have successfully completed the first year in Interior Architecture at the RAA, you have the opportunity to choose a specialization within Interior Architecture or Furniture Design. The core of the study is learning to become an ideal-enriched designer that acquires knowledge from all aspects of the profession. A professional attitude and skilfulness are hereby essential. Apart from the main curriculum, you have the opportunity to choose an individual study trajectory that is based on broadening and deepening your own personal interests and ambitions. There is also the opportunity to do research in relative creative disciplines, such as architecture, product design and theoretical research.
Subjects such as,Free Drawing, Digital drawing, Photography and Presentations form a basic part of the programme that make designing clear and unrestrained. The subjects History of Art, Interpretation of Art and Architecture- and Design theory offer the necessary theoretical knowledge. Moreover there are faculty related projects; guest speakers, workshops, and an internship which are part of the end phase. Interior Architecture is offered in both full-time and part-time courses. The full-time course has a duration of four years and the part-time course 5 years.
As a graduate student you have the right to enlist in the Registry of the Interior Architects according to the law of the Title-Architect.
