Torrens University Australia

Bachelor of Interior Design (Residential)

Nationally Recognised Higher Education

A Bachelor of Interior Design (Residential) teaches you practical design skills and essential theory to help you respond to contemporary living challenges. You will graduate with a strong foundation of design best practice, prepared to embark on a creative career as an interior designer.

This course teaches you environmentally sustainable practices while you investigate the finer details of home interior design, such as fittings and fabrics, as well as societal issues which include our ageing population, homelessness, evolving gender roles and the definition of family. You’ll discover the impact the selection of materials, lighting, joinery and furniture can have on your design, and explore technologies such as artificial intelligence and interactive audio-visual systems. From a practical point of view, you will realise residential environments through professional design practice and cross-disciplinary interaction, technical documentation, contract management and visualisation solutions.
