The Interior Architecture and Design degree at ATU Sligo places the creative response to culture, community and location at the heart of every project. Interactions with real clients, sites and diverse design projects provide students with real world design challenges, with a focus on developing versatile, industry- ready skills. Students are motivated to be innovative and progressive trendsetters, inspired by up-to-date knowledge of the design world.
The core element of the programme in each year is Design Studio. The dynamic and creative studio environment encourages students to develop their individual design style and skills through diverse selection of projects which include residential, hospitality, cultural, exhibition, community, conservation, restoration, furniture and lighting design, as well as collaborative projects with students from arts and construction-based professions. Students enjoy one-to-one contact time with tutors in dedicated studio spaces.
