The BA (Hons) Interior Design (Decoration) degree is truly unique, and is based upon current industry demands.
Leading industrial expert Tina Jesson agrees: "'Home styling guru, property author and founder of Home Stagers, the UK's leading home styling company, Tina Jesson, said that the design industry really does need people who are well qualified in 'real life interior design'.
The kind of design that is demanded by so many in today's style conscious climate, brought on by the nation's hunger for all things 'property, interiors and design'. The kind of design that will fit in to any home, magazine or budget.
So many courses still treat interior design as a luxury for the rich and famous, but with more demand from the general public, it's hard to find a course which will match this one for its down to earth approach and focus on what the styling industry needs.'"
Sarah Aram, speaking at Urban Interiors Seminar, London, October 2004: "Ten years ago there were five 'interiors' magazines - today there are 42!"
Kevin McCloud, Grand Designs Abroad, Channel 4, October 2004: "You may think of interior design as an inconsequential part of the architectural process - but you'd be wrong. Decoration, colour and furnishings - these are the things that put the comfort, the joy, the humanity into buildings."
