The FYP Ateliers investigate the issues of spatial experiences and sequences, in response to a specific context e.g. for residential and consumer spaces. Students are required to understand the ‘Client’ brief and do a contextual mapping and analysis to understand the existing physical constraints (including the building structures and design) socio-cultural and economic patterns. In addition, students also study concepts of branding and marketing, their strategies and understand their effects on design.

 

It provides a practice-oriented interior design training that develops students with the relevant discipline knowledge and skills to apply into a project by:

​

• To conceptualize design ideas and develop into creative design solutions with understanding design brief and design process.

• Applying concepts of visualization, presentation and communication during design generation and design development.

• Applying principles of final design presentation.

• Identifying issues of spatial programs, architectural elements and good detailing in response to design brief and concepts.

• Carrying out site analysis and researching on contemporary cultural issues.
