Student Design Process in Interior Design Education
Track
Research Proposal / Learning Theories and Pedagogy
Abstract
The purpose of this mixed-method study is to explore interior design students’ design process. During the first phase of data collection, we collected data via questionnaires and interviews from 18 interior design students. Students described their design process and answered questions about their use of computer, sketching, and design concepts. The preliminary findings provide us a better understanding of student design process. We will use student work examples to discuss their design concepts, and we will discuss our suggestions to improve student design process such as requiring students to develop a certain number of idea sketches and original design features.
