Unleash Your Design Vision: A

Are you passionate about creating beautiful and functional spaces? Do you dream of transforming ordinary rooms into extraordinary experiences? If so, our Interior Design program at VCAD is the perfect launchpad for your design journey.

A Program Tailored to Your Design Dreams 

We understand that successful design requires a balance of creativity, technical expertise, and business acumen. That's why our refreshed Interior Design Program has undergone a significant transformation, offering a curriculum that equips you with the realities of today's design landscape.

What's New and Why It Matters 

Here are the key changes designed to elevate your design journey: 

• Concept Development & Programming Take Center Stage: Dive deeper into the foundational aspects of design with two new core classes focusing on concept development and programming (understanding client needs). This ensures your projects are not just visually stunning, but also meet specific functional and user-centric goals. 

• Double Down on 3D Modeling: Master the art of 3D visualization with a second SketchUp class. This additional training will empower you to communicate your design ideas with greater clarity and impact, allowing you to refine your design solutions before they become physical spaces. 

• Business Savvy for Creative Minds: Bridge the gap between design and business with the addition of a second business-focused class: A&D Business Communications. This course equips you with the communication and collaboration skills needed to navigate the professional world with confidence and effectively market your design vision. 

• Human-Centric Design: The refreshed Interior Design Program goes beyond aesthetics. We believe in creating spaces that are inclusive, adaptable, and cater to the diverse needs of users. Human-centric design principles are woven throughout the curriculum, ensuring your designs are not just beautiful but also thoughtfully planned for the people who will inhabit them. This aligns perfectly with the growing focus on biophilic design in today's interior design landscape. 

• A Capstone Experience to Remember: Put your skills to the test in our newly created Capstone Term. This culminating experience provides a platform to collaborate with classmates and integrate your knowledge across all areas of the program to develop a large-scale design project. A dedicated Pre-Capstone Term sets the stage for success by providing the support and preparation needed to excel in your final project.
