BACHELOR OF VOCATION (INTERIOR DESIGN)
(3 YEAR FULL TIME DEGREE COURSE)

INTRODUCTION
Interior Design addresses the importance of human habitat and the built environment that
supports human activities and values. It generates order to the space occupied by people, by
making one aware of how the space influences our identity, productivity and wellness. As a n
interior designer one has the vital task to create intentional spatial interactions that can have a
positive effect on human beings in whichever space they may inhabit – working, living or
recreational.

The Interior Design program is built to initiate a thoughtful and reactive design process. It
facilitates the students to understand and create human habitation spaces through varied
understandings of theory, studio, practical skills, live projects, case studies, field trips and
encounters with industrie s and professionals. It also aims at inculcating an environmental
awareness within the student for the benefit of human health, well being and productivity.

The students are trained in representative skills through regular studios and a team of
specializ ed Design Faculty that focus on freehand drawing, technical drawing and model
making. These skills are further supplemented through elective subjects such as Interior
Lighting, Interior Landscape, Sustainable Interior, Set Design, Interior Project Manageme nt,
Furniture Design and Product Design. The program aims at promoting a holistic approach to the
designing process by simultaneously involving inputs from theory, allied subjects and electives
into design.

The program enables the student to become an ind ependent and effective learner and opens up
a range of prospects on completion of the course. The industry offers opportunities to young
designers in large set ups of architecture, interior design, kitchen design and exhibition design
practices. Graduates are equipped to begin their own practice or further their education by
applying to study in post -graduate programs ranging from furniture, exhibition, product and
interaction design to craft & technology, history - theory - criticism and Energy efficiency & green
design.
