What will I learn?
**Critically engage with the design and adaptive reuse of existing spaces as you prepare for socially responsible interior architecture practice or further study.****Designing for a greener future**It’s vital to address the ethical implications and environmental impact of demolishing and building anew, especially in response to the ongoing climate crisis. This degree promotes a responsible use and conservation of built resources by taking a multidisciplinary approach to the adaptive reuse of existing structures.You’ll work in our vibrant studios, alongside students and tutors from architecture, landscape, and design disciplines, becoming part of a collaborative creative community that mirrors professional practice.As part of this interior architecture course, you’ll:- Draw on architecture and landscape, alongside art and design, to critically engage in interior practice - Use sketching, modelling, and digital visualisation to develop bold design concepts and create spaces for individual and collective experiences- Explore the histories and theories of interior architecture and understand the cultural contexts that influence spatial design- Develop clear design arguments and deliver creative, adaptive reuse projects that respond to cultural, social, environmental, and human needs, prioritising accessibility and sustainability through live and self-directed briefs- Build a striking portfolio to develop your style, voice, and readiness for professional practice and further studyWhether your passion lies in homes, public interiors, offices, or exhibitions, this interior architecture course gives you the skills and confidence to create spaces that are safe, functional, and refined.**Social updates**Check out our Instagram (@leedsbeckettinterior) to see student work and stay updated with our course activities.**Find out more****Diverse community**By joining Leeds School of Arts, you’ll become part of a vibrant community of students across arts, architecture, and interior architecture courses.

This encourages collaboration and mirrors how designers and architects work together in real-world practice.**Space to grow**You’ll learn in modern, well-equipped studios at our City Campus in central Leeds. You’ll use workshops, digital tools, model-making spaces, and design labs to experiment, prototype and refine your ideas.In your first year, you’ll gain a substantial grounding in spatial thinking, materials, drawing, and design fundamentals. As you progress, you’ll tackle live projects, adaptive reuse briefs, and immersive design tasks that challenge you to respond creatively to environment, culture, and function.**Set yourself apart**Our teaching team brings together expertise from architecture, landscape, and interior architecture, giving you a broad future-focused perspective, preparing you for a variety of creative pathways. Alongside studio practice, you’ll study history, theory, and the cultural role of interior architecture. You’ll learn to develop design solutions that don’t just look good, but feel right socially, culturally, and ecologically.**Developing your design identity**Throughout the course, you’ll be encouraged to prioritise sustainable, ethical reuse over demolition. You’ll explore how designing interior architecture can respond to climate change, resource use, and evolving human needs.Upon completion of the course, you’ll have a strong portfolio, a clear design identity, and a critical understanding of what interior architecture can achieve.
