From Interior Design Schools
"Interior design is an art. It is not a fine art. It cannot luxuriate in its independence as can painting and sculpture, forming itself without regard to any but aesthetic demands. It is, instead, a hardworking art, with serious and sometimes mundane problems to solve. . . . Interior design is also a craft. Technique and experience count a lot in this field, just as they do in the finest of fine arts. . . . [Expertise] is achieved through the increasingly rigorous education that our profession requires and through the subsequent practical application of that education." Stanley Abercrombie, FAIA
Beginnings
Begin the program by choosing one or more of the Phase I courses. Introduction to Interior Design, Drafting, and Principles and Elements of Design are excellent beginning selections.
The certificate curriculum
This 29-course sequential program is equal parts creative theory and practical training. In the 77 semester units required you will be taught traditional skills and new technologies. Environmental issues, social issues, and sustainable design are emphasized.
