BA Interior Design
About this course
Interior design is concerned with the planning and creation of interior spaces that work functionally, resonate aesthetically, and reflect the needs and aspirations of the people who use them. It draws on architecture, product design, visual art, and human psychology to design environments that are at once practical and compelling, whether for commercial, hospitality, residential, or public settings. As the built environment becomes increasingly central to how we experience work, leisure, and community, the quality of interior space has never attracted more professional attention or investment. At Middlesex University in London, this three-year full-time programme develops your creative and practical skills in the design of commercial interiors, with a focus on producing inspiring and engaging environments. The curriculum incorporates considerations of financial viability, sustainability, and ecological awareness, reflecting the reality that professional interior design operates within budget constraints and must increasingly account for its environmental impact. A sandwich placement year and work placement opportunities are built into the programme, giving you real professional experience in design practices or client-facing environments before you graduate. London provides an exceptionally rich context for this kind of study, with access to the full range of commercial, cultural, and hospitality design environments. The typical entry tariff of 104 points reflects the accessible character of the programme. You will develop technical drawing and modelling skills, spatial thinking, client communication, and the ability to translate a brief into a coherent and realised design solution. Graduates pursue careers as interior designers in commercial design studios, architectural practices, hospitality and retail companies, property development, and as independent practitioners. Postgraduate study in interior design, architecture, or spatial design is a well-established route for those seeking more specialist expertise.
