Words From Our Graduation Diploma Alumni

Hear from students who completed the full three-year journey and built lasting careers in interior design.

★★★★★

Three years at PIID gave me far more than software skills — I learned how to think like a designer, manage real clients, and lead a project from concept to handover. My capstone project became the centerpiece of my job portfolio.

From freehand sketching in Year 1 to running a full client pitch in Year 3, every semester built directly on the last. The internship placement helped me secure a senior design associate role right after graduating.
