​Pedagogical Practices in Interior Design

The “Pedagogical Practices in Interior Design” research group focuses on exploring and advancing contemporary educational practices in Interior Design, with particular emphasis on integrating informal learning approaches into academic environments. The group investigates the role of artistic workshops, creative experimentation, and cultural interaction in enhancing students’ intellectual and design capabilities while connecting design education with artistic, cultural, and human-centered contexts. The group also aims to develop flexible educational frameworks that support critical thinking, creativity, and visual expression, ultimately improving the quality of Interior Design education outcomes at Applied Science Private University.
