Certificate Program in Interior Design Methods For Yacht Design And The Boatbuilding Industry

Effective boat design is determined by such important factors as crew safety and comfort. In this unique course the students will find out which consideration are required for attractive, ergonomically sound, and practical passenger and crew accommodations. Ideal for both interior designers and naval architects and marine engineers who need to gain increased understanding of accommodation design.

This course offers a comprehensive review of ergonomic and aesthetic considerations in boat interior design, general arrangement, and layout, with a specific focus on design implications of the latest manufacturing materials, methods and structures. Central to the offering is a complete, newly published textbook written by the noted designer Lisa Hix.

Interiors and Arrangements meets a critical need within the marine industry for detailed, updated instruction on the disciplines of interior design. The course covers such the key design issues as physical access, storage, stairway and lighting design, berth, galley, dining and head layouts. What distinguishes the accompanying text from others is that Ms. Hix never loses sight of physical imperatives—wave motion, heeling, drainage, ventilation and vessel structure—as factors in determining a boat’s interior spaces.

The exceptionally well-researched text involves the principles of design implications of new materials, composites and components, with all sources fully referenced in a complete bibliography. The result is a learning tool that designers can use immediately to create more functional and comfortable boats.

As a stand-alone course of study, Interiors and Arrangements is created for marine design professionals seeking who wish to enhance their existing skills and also for new students who plan to build a career in the field of marine interior design.

NOTE: Substantial portions of this course are included in Westlawn’s larger Yacht Design Lite course and also in the full Yacht Design Program.

Prerequisite: The students are required to have strong manual drafting or CAD skills and knowledge of descriptive terminology used in boat construction. A computer with reliable Internet access and email is required.
