TL;DR: In this paper, a new undergraduate interior design program is described, in order to demonstrate an approach to integrating theory and practice, and the program's pedagogical approach is demonstrated through an examination of the first and second year studio subjects.
Abstract: A variety of competing pedagogical orientations have accompanied the evolution of university-based Interior Design teaching. A review of relevant literature indicates that a range of pedagogical models are available, each rooted in a distinct design discipline such as architecture and industrial design. A new undergraduate Interior Design program is described, in order to demonstrate an approach to integrating theory and practice. Diverse teaching influences on the development of a course of study in Interior Design in the context of an established multi-disciplinary design faculty are illustrated. The new program’s pedagogical approach is demonstrated through an examination of the first and second year studio subjects. The paper concludes with a summary of the program’s strengths and weaknesses, and suggestions are made to promote ways to integrate theory and practice through broadening the theoretical discourse that could allow Interior Design to be explored through other relevant and critical social disciplines.

TL;DR: In this article, the impact of COVID-19 had on a first-year communication design curricula revitalization to progress students from a secondary level standards-based criterion to a tertiary culture predicated on active and experiential practice-led studio inquiry.
Abstract: This article presents the impact COVID–19 had on a first-year communication design curricula revitalisation to progress students from a secondary level standards-based criterion to a tertiary culture predicated on active and experiential practice-led studio inquiry. Methodologically, it describes a design-based research intervention that asks what occurred in the translation of a brief written as an in-person, studio-based model into a purely online undertaking, learning from anywhere, teaching in a constant state of flux? Through a commentary on practice, the revitalisation of a design programme, and the pedagogical shift from within the traditional studio paradigm–a dynamic on-campus, in-person model into an abrupt and atypical online undertaking due to the global pandemic, this paper contributes to a discourse on a design studio approach and presents the transference of the Learning Management System that supports distance learning.
