Abstract

Currently, the face of many popular professions has changed, and the profession of a designer is no exception. Society needs a highly qualified designer who shows creative independence, who knows how to work freely in conditions of integration, is able to make optimal decisions in difficult situations, is distinguished by individual originality and willingness to be competitive, successful, knows how to effectively use digital technologies and realize himself in the conditions of the modern world [1]. Today, society is characterized by the rapid development of digital technologies in various spheres of human activity, and in such conditions, many researchers consider the issue of completing the stage of informatization of education, in particular Ukrainian ones (L. Bilousova, V. Bykov, A. Boyarska-Khomenko, I. Gevko, L. Gryzun, I. Dobroskok, O. Zhernovnikova, N. Morse, N. Zhytienova) and Chinese (Ding Yuasi, Tan Wei, Huan Hui, Huan Zhongzhang, Wang Qilin, Chen Longwan, Qi Lifan). Such changes require the implementation of new approaches to the training of specialists in artistic disciplines, in particular interior designers. Since digital technologies continue to make changes in all areas of activity of designers (graphic, web designers, clothing, interior), such circumstances require improvement of the professional, primarily digital competence of these specialists in the field of interior design.
