Learn how to manage every part of living, retail and catering space design and development with our Master's Program in Interior Design at IED Roma.

Learn how to design innovative and authoritative spaces for the home, shop and restaurant, keeping up with rapidly changing needs. You will enhance your own professional approach with a learning model that reflects the organisational structure of a design studio and fosters the integration of transversal skills.

Being an Interior Designer means more than just approaching interior design in terms of project concept and development. It means being able to integrate different skills in various domains: from design to the choice of materials, from knowledge of technical regulations to communication and promotion of the project.

With the Master's Program in Interior Design in Rome you will learn to manage and coordinate all aspects of the design process, from initial research to promotion, working in three key areas: housing, retail and catering.

The course awards 60 CFA (Academic Formative Credits), corresponding to 60 ECTS (European Credit Transfer and Accumulation System).

As the programme is intended to reproduce the typical workplace environment found in an architecture studio, training will be delivered through specific modules, design workshops, guest lectures and partnerships with leading companies from the industry.

In particular, workshops typically consist of three design sessions dealing with three different areas. The first workshop covers home development, while the second one is about designing a retail space and the third focuses on a social space: the restaurant.

The purpose of the Master's Program is to provide you with all the tools you need to coordinate and manage the whole process of a design project.
