A well-planned interior design has a concrete impact on a room’s functionality, as well as the wellness and safety of the people who use that room. That’s why interior design isn’t limited to decor. It’s a career that requires both technical and creative knowledge.

In addition to becoming an expert in technical and architectural drawings, 3D models and working drawings, students will develop their own style and expand their creativity. They will then be able to:

• Select materials, finishes and colors that are best suited to a project’s requirements
• Design unique, custom, ergonomic furniture
• Create the desired ambiance using lighting tailored to the room they are designing

Trends are always evolving in the interior design industry. That’s why the three-year DEC in Interior Design is taught by well-known professionals who still work in the field. At the end of their training, students will know how to:

• Create visually appealing, functional and safe interior design concepts for residential, commercial, cultural and industrial projects
• Use popular industry software like SketchUp, AutoCAD, Autodesk 3ds Max, Autodesk Revit, etc.
• Complete interior design projects that comply with current regulations and industry standards

Costumes speak for themselves. They tell the story of a place, an epoch and most especially of a character. Whether it be a wandering knight, a nervous banker, you will be called to clothe them and bring them to life.

Conceptualizing a costume requires time travel in the past or into the future. Designing garments for an English family having a picnic on the banks of the Thames in 1776, or having to dress American political refugees exiled in Mexico in the year 2100 require extensive research.

In the cinema and television industry, costumes need to be produced in step with the scriptwriter. Knowing how to mimic the natural wear-and-tear of clothes during a short or long film and keeping the clothing style cohesive throughout will demonstrate your adaptability.

You may choose to specialize in costume design for cinema and television as of the fourth semester of your Fashion Design DEC program. Apply your talent and knowledge in the fields of cinema, television, circus and theatre.
