      What is Interior Design? is a handbook for students, scholars, and practitioners who have an interest in interior design and architecture. This book examines the fundamental characteristics of interior space—the analysis and understanding of existing buildings, the nature and qualities of organizing an interior space, and an understanding of the material and surface qualities of found and applied textures. What is Interior Design? contextualizes current issues around education and practice, examines both historical and contemporary concerns in design, and looks at the work of key practitioners in the field. The study and practice of designing interior spaces is a constantly evolving subject. However, despite the popularity of interior design at both undergraduate and postgraduate level, there is still very little legislation or definition available.
