I have a class with 16 university students of Interior design. They need English to graduate, only for that. Most student are linguistic/logical-mathematical (Multiple Inteligences Theory). There's also a couple of spatial and a couple of auditory. 4 are very strong intrapersonal, the others are interpersonal. They've been studying English for 3 month, and I have to teach them "Likes and dislikes"
Do you know any activity that is suitable for this situation? Help me please.

I'm surprised that you don't have ALL spatial learners. Hopefully all of the students are creative. What level do you have? It sounds like maybe you have beginners. Do they know the simple present well, or are they just now learning it?
I'd collect some pictures, photos and drawings relevant to interior design and even architecture, and use them in an activity about likes and dislikes. You might try a survey activity in which students ask each other about the visuals and write down their responses. After that you can show the students how to use their results to write sentences.

This reads like a homework question for a TEFL course. :D

I think they need thesis for this! Is the best way that they could do research and interview others by using their english, in a way that they can also practice more.
