In my years of experience as an Interior Design student, I have learnt that design is more than a simple profession, but instead, it is an intense and imperious passion. If you thought Interior Design was just about decorating, think again! Interior Designers engage with a range of interior spaces to create innovative spatial solutions with a thorough knowledge of building technology, materials and human environmental needs. The study of Interior Design involves a sound knowledge of architectural structure, space planning, building materials and finishes, surfaces, lighting, interior fittings, and furniture. At the University of Johannesburg, Interior Design students develop the ability to solve design-related problems in divergent and creative ways. I hope to transfer these abilities over into industry with an incredible, youthful energy
