An Interior Architecture/Design Education Model within the Scope of New Approaches

Journal Title: Online Journal of Art and Design - Year 2016, Vol 4, Issue 2

Abstract

Interior architecture/design, which does not have a long history, first appeared and was institutionalized in the United States of America and then spread throughout the world. While its fields of education and profession developed at similar times, especially interior design and interior architecture, which are two different concepts related to the profession, have always been a matter of debate. Just like in the field of application, this discrimination has been reflected on education fields and formed two different applications of the profession. This study suggests a gradual education model that will associate the basic concepts of interior architecture at a minimum level. With the education understanding of the information age, the European Union directives and the approaches in the United States of America in the field of interior architecture were taken as basis for the development of this model. The suggested education model and the approaches forming the basic framework constitute the first step for a new curriculum that will meet the needs of the 21st century. This suggested curriculum will provide gradual authorization and the legal regulations necessary in work fields and help create the international criteria for accreditation studies.
