ASU
Herberger Institute for Design and the Arts, Interior
Design Program
Top national and international students are attracted to
the School of Architecture and Landscape Architecture’s
Interior Design Program, which is concerned with the future
of the design professions and the accompanying issues of
sustainability, social responsibility in practice and production,
and collaboration in the professional world. The combined
effort of the faculty of the school provides a basis for
continued collaboration and design leadership. The involvement
of the Interior Design students in the CHAIRity event is
an opportunity to apply this imperative and affect positive
change in the community. In addition, the students’ positive
experience in this effort and its life lessons go far beyond
their expectations for learning. For more information, visit
