Establishing Solid Foundations

In the preparatory year, students are introduced to various fields of design and unleash their creative potential. Design is the key focus of applied arts studies. This term, of Anglo-Saxon origin, means "to draw." For a creative individual, it represents an opening to experimentation, conception, and communication. Therefore, in the preparatory year, learning to draw serves as the foundation for acquiring creative methodology. Drawing is essential for any design project, introducing various domains such as space, volume, photography, video, and graphic design.

The school year is scheduled to begin around September 15th and ends at the end of May."

   

Structured around key events

 

INTEGRATION SEMINAR

The year begins with a week of integration and discovery, allowing students to get acquainted with their peers, the teaching team, and their own creative potential.

OPTION CHOICES

To enable students to shape their creative profile, during the preparatory year and the first year of specialization, they choose 4 options out of 5: photography, videography, engraving, sculpture, and trend observation. These options complement the core courses.

PERSONAL PROJECT

During the second semester, students must complete a personal project on a topic of their choice. This project reveals their future direction and synthesizes their learning from the common core curriculum and the chosen options.

WORKSHOPS

Design is not an individual discipline but a collaborative effort. The preparatory year is punctuated by team workshops within limited time frames. These workshops help develop creative methodology and provide students with a clearer vision of their future professional practice.

ORIENTATION MODULE

To consolidate their direction, students benefit from conferences on the profession of interior architecture by professionals in the field.
