This course covers specifications of paints, finishes, flooring materials, both hard and soft, walls, ceilings, moldings, doors, and windows for residential and commercial applications. Students learn about interior products for durability, health, environmental, sustainability, and American Disability Act considerations.

Advisory: INTRDGN 102 | Lecture: 3 hrs
This course covers the latest codes and standards pertinent to interior designers and architects with emphasis on how residential and commercial building designs and finishes are affected by various building, accessibility, and green codes. Topics include the most recent International Building Code (IBC), International Residential Code (IRC), International Green Construction Code (IGCC), the CALGreen Code (Title 24 - Part 11), the American with Disabilities Act (ADA), and relevant Mechanical, Electrical, and Plumbing (MEP) codes.

Prerequisite: None | Lecture: 2 hrs, Lab: 2 hrs
This beginner lecture and laboratory course introduces Building Information Modeling (BIM) for Interior Design. Students will use BIM techniques and apply the elements and principles of interior design to create a residential or commercial building on a computer complete with floor plans, sections, elevations, details, schedules and renderings.

Advisory:INTRDGN 116 | Lecture: 2 hrs, Lab: 2 hrs
Lecture and laboratory teaches advanced topics in Building Information Modeling (BIM) for interior design and architecture. Students utilize computer modeling techniques to apply the elements and principles of design to create architectural and interior drawings and a Building Information Model of a residential or commercial building. Daylighting and building energy analysis, Mechanical, Electrical and Plumbing (MEP) systems, as well as CALGreen and ADA code compliance are reviewed.
