BA (Hons) Interior Design with integrated Foundation Year is a four-year degree programme, including an integrated foundation year to help develop your skills and creativity before you start the first year of the degree course.<br/><br/>Learn the art of influencing how people experience space, from homes to hotels.<br/><br/>Interior Design is as much about people as it is about place. You need to know design principles and understand architecture, but you also need to understand human psychology: how we move through spaces and what we need from our environment. On this course, we’ll train you to combine technical skills and creative thinking – through real projects at real scale.<br/><br/>Youll have your own dedicated studio for all three years – readily accessible and large enough to work at the scale that interior projects demand. You’ll build site models that stay up for months, test full-scale prototypes, and develop ideas the way professional designers actually do – over time.<br/><br/>With London’s ultra-modern skyline and Kent’s heritage coast both nearby, you’ll get exposure to everything from commercial retail and hospitality projects to civic spaces and ancient buildings. By the time you graduate, youll have a jam-packed portfolio, a diverse range of experience, and a clear sense of the direction you want to take your career.

We consider the strength of our applicants’ portfolios as well as their grades and we therefore may make offers which are lower than our standard entry criteria of 112 tariff points. This may be to students who have faced difficulties that have affected their performance and who were expected to achieve higher results - in these cases, a strong portfolio is especially important. We regularly admit students with a tariff much higher than our standard 112 requirement, and applicants who show potential but aren’t quite at the stage to be able to succeed on the course are offered a 4 year degree with an integrated foundation year which has a standard entry requirement of 32 tariff points.
