BA Interior Design

This BA (Hons) Interior Design degree at Middlesex University teaches students to design inside spaces, homes, shops, workplaces, and exhibitions. Students learn how to plan layout, pick colours and materials, use sketching, model-making, and digital tools. Real design projects are used to build strong portfolios. The course also offers a one-year placement option, so students gain work experience. The BA Interior Design with Foundation Year is offered for those who need extra preparation before the main course.

The full-time BA runs for 3 years at the Hendon Campus. Students may enter at Year 2 or Year 3 if they hold a relevant prior qualification (HND, foundation degree) and meet transfer credit rules. The course includes studio work, practical tasks, lectures, and design theory. Students also do research and project development for interiors in various settings, such as residential, retail, commercial, exhibition, and public spaces.

Learning methods include studio sessions, workshops, seminars, tutorials, field visits, model-making, and digital visualisation. Students also work in groups and individually. Assessment takes many forms, such as design projects, portfolios, presentations, written work, and practical tasks. Regular feedback is given on each piece of work to help with improvement.
