Space/Interior Design

3 Years On Campus Bachelors Program

Art and Design Institut

Program Overview

The Bachelor of Arts in Space/Interior Design at Art and Design Institut equips you with hands-on skills to shape inspiring living and public spaces, blending creativity with practical architecture. It's ideal for passionate individuals who love visualizing environments, from cozy homes to innovative public areas, and want a career turning ideas into reality.

Curriculum Structure
Year 1 builds your foundation in design thinking and spatial awareness, introducing core principles through studios like those led by experts such as doc. Ing. arch. Anna Šlapetová, who brings real-world architecture from family houses to public buildings. You'll dive into Interior Design Basics to explore object relationships and human presence in spaces, alongside Architectural Drawing for precise spatial mapping, setting you up to create multi-layered environments right from the start.

Year 2 ramps up with secondary studios that broaden your expertise, incorporating international influences like those from MgA. Petra Müllerová's product and interior projects from Rotterdam. Key modules include Advanced Interior Realizations, focusing on complex reconstructions such as schools and houseboats, and Exhibition Design, where you'll experiment with installations in white cube, specific, or public settings to master curatorial collaboration.

Year 3 polishes your portfolio with supplementary studios, emphasizing professional integration through teacher-guided projects in public and intimate environments. You'll tackle Public Space Interventions for mapping work and memory in urban contexts, Sustainable Interior Systems drawing from authorized architect practices, and capstone work reflecting individual artistic expression in painting, printmaking, and full-scale designs.

Focus areas: Spatial mapping, interior realizations (family homes, public buildings like schools), exhibition installations, product-integrated environments, and sustainable architecture.

Learning outcomes: Graduates master creating functional, memory-rich spaces; collaborate on international projects; produce portfolios for architecture firms; and apply skills in reconstructions, houseboats, and cultural exhibitions.

Professional alignment (accreditation): Programs align with Czech Chamber of Architects standards, with faculty like authorized architects ensuring industry-recognized training for interiors and public builds.

Reputation (employability rankings): ADI's expert faculty, including CTU Prague alumni and international studio collaborators, positions grads for strong employability in EU design markets, with hands-on experience mirroring top practices—no formal QS/Guardian rankings noted, but proven through teacher-led real-world projects.

Experiential Learning (Research, Projects, Internships etc.)

At the Art and Design Institut, our Bachelor of Arts in Space/Interior Design puts you right in the heart of hands-on learning, where you'll build real-world skills through projects inspired by actual architecture and design challenges. You'll work alongside expert faculty like doc. Ing. arch. Anna Šlapetová, who brings her experience from the Czech Technical University, international internships in Berlin, and leading complex interior projects for family homes, public buildings like schools and kindergartens, and even houseboats. This means gaining practical expertise in everything from geometric compositions and spatial installations to gestural designs and natural structures, all in studios that mimic professional environments.

Here's how our program dives deep into experiential learning with specific tools, collaborations, and opportunities tailored to space and interior design:
- Expert-led studios and projects: Collaborate with teachers like MgA. Petra Müllerová, who honed her skills at international studios (e.g., Richard Hutten in Rotterdam on the Amsterdam National Opera reconstruction), on group projects exploring exhibitions as mediums, white cube installations, specific environments, and public spaces.
- Architecture-focused internships and realizations: Follow in faculty footsteps with built-in exposure to independent architectural practice, including internships and complex interior reconstructions for real clients like municipalities (e.g., Dolní Břežany projects).
- Hands-on design cycles: Tackle practical stages from simple geometric surfaces in primary colors to gestural/calligraphical works, art history details, and natural structures (e.g., fruit, tree trunks, agave leaves, swarms of beetles)—perfect for portfolio-building group critiques.
