Through the analysis of images depicting interior spaces, participants will engage in identifying the application of these principles, followed by group discussions. A Q&A session and a homework assignment tasking participants to prepare a one-page summary on the application of two design principles in a chosen interior space will be conducted. Subsequently, the module will review the homework and introduce the concept of space planning, highlighting its importance in interior design through discussions on zoning, circulation patterns, and furniture arrangement. Participants will then engage in sketching a basic floor plan for a given scenario, such as a studio apartment, focusing on zoning and circulation. The session will conclude with the sharing of sketches, group feedback, and further discussion to solidify understanding.
