Interior Design: Create, Build, Decorate!

This ongoing course is great for those who have a love for interior design and would like to explore their creativity by designing rooms. This is an ongoing course where learners will learn and practice. They will create rooms, create mood boards, utilize interior design software programs, give presentations, learn interior design principles, and learn how to apply the color theory when designing and decorating rooms.

In this class, learners will bring their visions to life by learning how to draw and create actual rooms in free design programs. Students will first design a living room after learners will create any room of their choice. They will have the flexibility to choose their own colors and furniture for the living room. After, they will have the freedom to get as creative as they would like from the size of a space, room choice, colors, layout, etc. 

I am always open to questions and stop as I go to ensure that all learners are keeping up and understand ideas and concepts. Learners will learn at the beginning of class, have shorts breaks where we have fun by playing a quick game, then the students will resume learning and practice what they learned.
