INTEGRATED APPLICATION OF INTERIOR DESIGN PROJECT

Course Description

This course aims to enable students to integrate their accumulated knowledge of design, construction, materials, and technical systems acquired throughout previous semesters into a comprehensive application project. During the course, construction drawings, detail solutions, material selections, building systems, and technical coordination of interior architecture projects are developed. Students produce application details at different scales by considering project standards, current regulations, accessibility, sustainability, and user requirements. The contributions of digital modeling and artificial intelligence-supported technical evaluation tools to the design process are critically assessed. The course aims to develop students’ technical accuracy, interdisciplinary coordination, and application-oriented problem-solving skills for professional practice processes.
