Do I need to study architecture in order to pursue interior designing?

Architecture is a basic knowledge of interior design. Today there are many programmes not just for interior design but also for interior architecture and design. In addition to interior design is often inspired by the architecture elements. That being said, you can master architecture but it is not focal study in order to pursue an interior design career. Unless you want to become an architect. When you apply for an interior design program, look for a program that will give you basic technical skills such as sketching, perspective drawing, construction drafting, computer aids design etc. Also, the program should provide you knowledge of color theory, programming, schematic design and business practices. You will also have a choice of choosing residential, commercial, retail, office design plus kitchen and bath design. For history, they may offer you architecture, art, and design etc.
