Interior Spaces | Summer / Short course | Art & Design | On Campus | 40 hours | ELISAVA Barcelona School of Design and Engineering | Spain

Interior spaces are the core of the built environment that organize structures and facilitate our lives, activities and social behaviour. The main focus of the course, therefore, is not only on the definition of space in its physical form and function, but in particular on the experience of space, its perception by humans, and how we relate to the space that evokes different emotional responses. In this course, students are introduced to the complexities of developing interior spaces, which is on the one hand a mental process and on the other requires a spatial knowledge. To design space, it is necessary to decipher the characteristics of its nature and to discover the messages revealed by its shape and aesthetics. The course programme provides an excellent foundation and structure for learning and gathering experience in designing spaces and developing critical thinking. The teaching method focuses on the promotion of intellectual, communicative, experiential and applied skills to enable the student to have a successful learning process. At the heart of the project is the creation of an aesthetically attractive and functional space that enhances the culture and quality of life of a resident.
