Course Summary

Interior Design at the RCA explores emergent ideas and issues in interior design, from rooms to cities. We believe the interior is an interface between its occupants and the built environment and an agent for social change.

We’ll challenge you to formulate your own rigorous and critically independent responses by reworking existing structures, creating new temporary installations and forming permanent interventions.

We offer an interdisciplinary, studio and workshop-oriented learning environment within the School of Architecture. You'll benefit from 'inside/out' lecture series featuring talks by researchers, academics, and practitioners from related disciplines. There are opportunities for projects with external partners, and practice mentorship is offered throughout the provision.

You’ll be taught by leading academics, well-known practising designers, architects and theorists, and internationally renowned innovators in their fields. We create responsive and intellectually sophisticated designers: you will graduate with the skills to undertake further research and education and enter interior or other design professions.
