History of Interior Design
There’s a clear, logical progression to this course, which is designed to provide an overview of interior design history and is aimed at students and industry professionals. You’ll start with floors. Plain, patterned and painted wood, as well as stone, ceramic and rugs. You’ll then move on to the walls, considering wallpapers, plaster and textiles. Diana Lloyd will also guide you through the architectural details related to doors, windows and fireplaces. You will see how the frieze (disguising the join of the wall and the ceiling) and the skirting board can be used as a signature of the designer.
It’s a relaxed and friendly environment in which you’ll pick up knowledge that will be used time and time again in your studies or working life.
The study of interior design and its development through history is an ambitious project requiring a knowledge of architecture, construction, art and furniture design, as well as an understanding of more recent technologies such as lighting, heating and ventilation.
Earlier fragments apart, the first impressions we have of a complete interior environment come from the astonishingly well-preserved treasures of ancient Egypt, whence author John Pile takes us to the high spots of the Greek and Roman empires where newly-mastered skills in making domes reflected an emphasis on public buildings celebrating collective civic pride.
In both public and private through the medieval era and the “dark ages”, the ascendancy of the Christian church was celebrated in cathedrals, abbeys, monasteries and fortresses, but it is not until the Renaissance – turning to Vasari’s Lives Of The Painters, Sculptors And Architects box £30 – that we can identify the individuals who were responsible for some of the era’s greatest achievements.
