Mission statement

The Interior Architecture program at KUL is dedicated to cultivating an open and creative environment for students and faculty members and focuses on the development of an interior language. Our program is rooted in engagement and research, one that actively intends to shape the course of the future. Design takes center stage in our program, serving both as goal and the driving force, both as a result and as a process. Everything is design: from the initial experience of design to research into design, the making of design and its execution.

As educators, as designers, the interior architecture program strives to push the boundaries with a focus on growth, trusting the creative environment and embracing both success and failure as steppingstones to growth. We like to think in terms of maximizing the input from students, teachers, and colleagues. In general, we aim to develop innovative pedagogic methodologies, whereby both teachers, students are invited into a lifelong journey of learning and development of the self.
