Singapore Interior Design

Schools for Interior Design

In Singapore, there are many schools that teach the art of interior design. In fact, I think almost all the polytechnics in Singapore provides a course in Interior Design.

• Singapore Polytechnic provide Diploma in Intrior Design
• Ngee Ann Polytechnic provides Diploma in Sustainable Urban Design & Engineering
• Nanyang Polytechnic provides The Diploma in Space and Interior Design
• Temasek Polytechic provides Diploma in Interior Architecture & Design

There are even at home Internet courses available to help you get your degree in interior design. For example: New York, Chicago and San Francisco all have top interior design programs at their colleges. I am not sure if Singapore provides such courses online but I do know that there are part-time courses available.

And what better place to attend a school than where trends are hot and where you can get a challenging and comprehensive curriculum that gives you experience with  both residential and contract design.

As with many career subjects, there are different degrees available to the interior design student. Youcan start with a certificate, move to an associates, then a bachelors and a masters degree.

Each one is harder to get and takes more time and more money. But the exciting career you will have waiting for you when you graduate are well worth every dollar  spent and hour dedicated to the courses.

You can also choose an area of specialty in which you want to work. It is important however to keep the options open because one never knows what the job market will be like.

It is better to know more about more than just one small specialty. Then you can move to the area where there are more jobs in demand.

Most people will specialize in either residential or business interior design though. There are pluses to all of these, but with residential, you must be keyed  in on your customer and their lifestyle.

You won’t want to design an interior the way you would want yours. It may not fit your client’s lifestyle.
