At the School of Design, interior design faculty Elif and Alp Tural teach students how empathy, accessibility, and well-being can shape the spaces designers create. After earning their degrees at Arizona State University, the Turals moved to Blacksburg, where they now help prepare the next generation of interior designers in the College of Architecture, Arts, and Design. Their approach asks students to think carefully about how spaces affect the people who use them every day.
Interior designers help students see that meaningful design begins with understanding people
