Abstract

This work aims to analyze the impact of the visual arts in the development of the concept of project in the disciplines of the central axis of the Higher Course of Technology in Interior Design of the Federal Institute of Paraíba — CSTDI/ IFPB from the analysis of the process of an experimental minicourse developed at the Federal Institute of Paraíba (IFPB) in 2017, evaluating the use of visual language elements applied to the design concept for interior design. The research problem is: do visual language elements provide a deeper understanding of the concept of interior design project in the core disciplines of the IFPB Interior Design Undergraduate Course? The results showed that the analysis through the pre-iconographic description (PANOFSKY, 1986) can be a tool for understanding the concept of interior design project in the analyzed context.
