This subject requires the student to develop a clear understanding of material technology and structural principles as they may be applied to interior design. Through practical application, the student gains knowledge of the essential generic vocabulary of materials and structures by exploring the key criteria by which materials and structures inherently define the nature of decision making in interior design. Sustainable principles are considered within this subject. Assignments are focused on developing knowledge through first principles, site visits, research, workshop activities, lectures, seminars and design projects.
