HND 3D Design (incorporating Interior Design)

This HN 3D Design - Interior course is now well established. On this course you will be researching and developing a broad range of interior design projects including live interior and building refurbishment projects in the local area. This course aims to allow you to develop practical design skills using industry standard techniques. There is a strong emphasis on freehand and technical drawing skills and you will also develop design projects using CAD technology. You will use up-to-date hardware and software facilities within the specialist interior design studios. Personal development sketchbooks will be produced throughout the course. All projects will use 3-Dimensional Model Making and Concept Visualisation Skills. Communication and Contextual Studies will be integrated with ongoing design work.
