BArch and BDes are both great options and are different mostly in terms of their overall focus. While BArch is all about architecture- designing buildings, planning spaces, and working on construction projects, a BDes course will focus on the more creative side of design. It covers a wide range of design fields, such as graphic design, product design, fashion design, and more.
So, whether you're more inclined towards architecture or design, both options offer exciting opportunities. Choosing a course will depend on your interest, aptitude, and aspiration.

Well both the Interior Design and Architecture programs have international recognition, Architecture comparatively holds higher significance because of its wider career scope, complex technical elements, and established professional bodies that oversee architectural practice worldwide.
Interior Design is focused on the aesthetics and functionality of an existing property (office, home, restaurant, or hotel), however, Architecture deals in the design and construction of the property.
