Beginner Level
Is your learner interested in entering into the Interior Design field, but wants to know more about it? Maybe they are interested in redecorating a space in their home? This class will better prepare them for their own design projects ahead whether interior design is a hobby or a possible future career. In each lesson, your student will learn from a professional interior designer how to view and discuss a room by its main elements (style, color, texture, line/shape & accessories.) By the end of the class, your student will no longer say a design looks nice or pretty, but be able to analyze and understand how to an interior designer brings both beauty & function to any room. After each lesson, your student is invited to share an interesting photo of a room or object and practice describing it by its elements. Then, I will further discuss it with them in our shared classroom. What to expect: 🎥 4 Lessons, video in a slide show format taught by Ms. Katie. Entire course is in Outschool Classroom. No need to leave the platform while learning, but will need to research photos online. 📝 Recommended Assignments.
