Interior Designers Community

The British Academy of Arts and Design (BAAD) successfully organized an academic visit to IDEA Nepal for Diploma in Interior Design students for the program “Orientation, Interior Interaction & Excellence Award 2025.”

The visit provided students with valuable exposure to the professional framework of interior design practice, industry ethics, and the role of IDEA Nepal in promoting excellence within the interior design community. Through orientation and interactive sessions, students gained insights into career pathways, professional standards, and the importance of continuous learning.

The Excellence Award 2025 segment served as a source of inspiration, encouraging students to pursue creativity, professionalism, and design excellence in their academic and professional journey. The competition provided a valuable platform for students to showcase their design skills, creativity, and professional understanding, while encouraging innovation, critical thinking, and excellence in interior design. Such initiatives motivate students to strive for higher standards and prepare them for real-world professional challenges.

BAAD extends sincere…

In interior design, pattern and texture play a vital role in shaping the visual language and tactile experience of a space.

Pattern refers to the repetition of visual motifs — such as geometric shapes, organic lines, or decorative elements — which help establish rhythm, movement, and visual hierarchy in design.

Texture describes the surface quality of materials, whether smooth, rough, soft, or coarse. Texture affects how we perceive light, depth, and comfort in a space.

In today’s notes, we explored:

• How patterns influence visual interest and spatial identity

• The relationship between texture and material expression

The British Academy of Arts and Design (BAAD) was honoured to welcome IDEA Nepal for a meaningful and insightful visit. The interaction reflected mutual appreciation and a shared commitment to nurturing excellence in interior design education in Nepal.

Such engagements strengthen professional collaboration, inspire creativity, and support the continuous growth of future interior designers.

We were privileged to welcome ID. Sushil P. Shiwakoti (Vice President), ID. Ritesh Shrestha (General Secretary), IA. Sushovit Ranjitkar (Secretary), ID. Ashok Maharjan, ID. Sayana Dangol, and IA. Bishwattam Shrestha (Members), along with the IDEA Nepal team. The delegation was formally welcomed by ID. Sandipa Tamang, Director, BAAD.

BAAD looks forward to continued collaboration with IDEA Nepal in advancing professional standards and educational excellence.
