New York School of Interior Design professor Judith Gura and students in her Design Theory Class share comments, critiques, and criticism about historic design theories and the people who formulated them—from Vitruvius to Venturi, Corbusier to Koolhaas and others—as well as more provocative subjects like gender issues, tastemakers, and the psychology of interior spaces. The object is to consider how these concepts influence design today.

The New York School of Interior Design, founded in 1916, is a not-for-profit college dedicated to interior design, and one of the leading institutions in its field, offering several degrees in Interior, taught by a faculty of prominent interior designers, architects, visual artists, and art and design historians. The new Institute for Continuing and Professional Studies offers workshops and CEU-credit professional development classes for established design professionals as well as those exploring new careers in the field. The school is accredited by the Council for Interior Design Accreditation (formerly FIDER).

Judith Gura is a professor of design history and theory, directs the design history program at the New York School of Interior Design, and is the author of critically-praised books on interior design history, Scandinavian furniture and Renaissance-to-modern furniture styles. Her articles have appeared in the country’s most prominent design and arts publications, and she lectures frequently on a variety of design subjects. A graduate of Cornell University, she has a Master’s degree from The Bard Graduate Center for Studies in the Decorative Arts, Design and Culture.
