Welcome to our Creative Introduction to Interior Design course!

Whether you're looking to transform your own home or are interested in developing the skills to support others with their spaces, this course will provide you with a clear and practical insight into how to initiate and complete an interior design project from start to finish.

Planning and Preparation Stage

Before diving into the fun and creative side of your interior project, it's essential to map out your plan, whether it's a full renovation or a simple room refresh. This initial stage equips you with the tools and insights to ensure that you have covered all the essential details.

Write Your Brief

Creating a plan for your project, known as a 'Design Brief,' will help organise your ideas and ensure clarity. Take some time to consider your lifestyle, preferred materials, sustainability, and the longevity of your design choices.

Writing a brief for your builder

Writing a brief for your builder can save time and avoid confusion over specifications and costs. Meet with tradespeople who can advise you on materials and what's possible within your budget. They will also provide a realistic timescale for the project and inform you of any planning permission or certificates required.

Top Tips for Planning Your Layout

Designing a layout in any space can seem daunting, especially when dealing with rooms of varying shapes and sizes. Take your time and consider your options. Remember to consider natural light and views before deciding on furniture placement.
