The speed of change and constant adjustments in the increasingly complex networks of social and labour relationships create a need for professional designers who will intervene in a space in the last instance, before it is made available to the user.
In their interventions, designers apply their own techniques (which are generally less aggressive than what are normally viewed as architectural techniques) to complete a scene, improving its features and providing quality of life. They focus their attention on the passionate resolution of constructive details that are generally ignored in projects and that constitute one of interior designers' favourite tools, all of which allows designers to meet the challenge of fitting out the spaces they work on successfully and with respect.
Serious reflection on the profession and the growing demand for more flexible solutions when it comes to using existing spaces defines the aims of this Master's course.
The programme pays special attention to:
The role of professional designers in society and their ability to seek the appropriate limits that will enable them to respond to change.
Knowledge of the historical and cultural roots that are the foundations of the present day and of modern professional performance.
Defining and studying the tools and resources available to interior designers so that they will be able to provide a knowledgeable, global, full and feasible response to any problems put before them.
To define the role of interior design in improving the environment, while trying to adjust the limits of professional intervention to the interests of society and the clients.
To learn to analyse the conditioning factors imposed by the place to be designed and the nature of the commission.
To transform the results of the analysis into a synthesis that will be the driving idea of the project.
To choose the appropriate techniques and materials to define and construct the project.
To use drawings to master the project area, and to explain the designer's intentions to the client.
To control the development of the idea until it becomes a feasible project, and to transmit the conditions to the experts who will execute it.
