From the outset, you'll develop design proposals, working across a range of interior spaces such as restaurants, hotels, retail spaces and museums. In today's design world, sustainability is paramount. Finding new uses for old buildings is a key skill.

You'll also have the opportunity to learn about teamwork and client relationships by working on "live" projects with external audiences or collaborators.
