I would say that the differences between
interior architecture and interior
design is that with interior design you
don't really like remove walls or like
gut a building and like change
everything that's going on, with interior
architects you do do that and the
difference between interior architecture
and architecture is that you only deal
with existing, so renovating and changing
and altering like existing buildings not
starting from scratch.
It's very sustainable it's all about kind of... and
we have listed like
demolition drawings so you have to think
about how you'd remove it how would you
reuse that kind of the materials and
things like that
and there's definitely been a
sustainable like push for all of our
projects to think about kind of like how
they will affect the future and how
they're like benefit everyone.
This first
project of this year I did like a laundry where you had to like push
powered washing machines so you'd have
to like cycles to do your
washing to force you to like talk to
your neighbors and things like that and
then this project is like looking at a
housing solution for Generation Z and
kind of like how that would look and
you're kind of converting the existing
building into kind of a place
where more long time long-term
tenancies can exist.
I'd say that the teachers are all really supportive so
you have like two studio teachers that
you kind of see twice a week which I
haven't heard of any other course where
you have so much at one-on-one support
which we really really do and then
you've got like an IT tutor who's great
and he really helps you with like all
the technical drawings in kind of like
how to do everything like 3d modeling
and things like that, and then we've also
got a tech tutor that helps us understand
like what foundations are how they work
different periods of like architecture
how you'd like draw that and what
they need and like structurally so yeah
this teaching team is so good and so
supportive and they've always always been great.
The facilities here are really
great so you've got like a huge workshop
that's literally got everything you can
imagine: laser cutting, 3d printing
there's so much stuff there and there's
so many like printers there's never like
a problem to print your work and it just
all runs really smoothly.
all the tech staff are so great and
supportive.
Yeah I definitely say that kind of across like architecture and
interior architecture there is like a
big family feel, everyone kind of
knows everyone and like it's just and
there's bias events which are like club nights for the interior
architecture and architecture society
and they're so much fun and everyone
gets on well and you can literally go
and ask anymore for help or ask like what
they're doing or what they're up to
it's really good, it's a really good
family environment
