Course Description
Interior Design Studio 9 is an evidence-based design studio that focuses on the challenge of designing interiors for a multi-functional, multi-spatial large-scale healthcare building. Students will develop an understanding of theories, strategies, and application of passive design strategies that impact interior environmental efficiency and achieve an eco-friendly design. Along with solving the primary interior healthcare design problems, the course will also deal with the possible ways of integrating daylighting, natural ventilation and renewable energy. The course will demonstrate progressive understanding of the elements of interior spaces that are capable of creating habitable, functional, as well as aesthetically and psychologically satisfying interiors.
Upon completion of the course students will be able to develop appropriate interior solutions to address complex design problems. They will also be capable of becoming evidence-based designers, capable of making decisions based on rigorous research on similar projects’ evaluations, and evidences gathered from field visits and real-life users.
