Synopsis
The Certificate in Interior Design and Decorative Techniques (E-Learning) course is a twelve (12) months fundamental course designed for anyone who aspires to be a residential interior designer.
The course consists of two semesters focusing on residential design, touching on subjects such as:
- Design Communication through verbal and visual means such as mood and material boards, sketching
- Design Fundamentals like design principles and elements, colour concepts
- Digital Imaging through the use of Computer-Aided Design software
- Design Studio like scale reading, construction drawing
Upon meeting all the requirements and achieving the Certificate in Interior Design and Decorative Techniques (E-Learning) qualification, those wishing to learn more about the commercial aspects of design can proceed to the Diploma in Interior Design (E-Learning) course.
Aim of the Course
This course will enable participants to explore the development and processes of residential interior design – from the conceptual stages of incorporating fundamentals such as design principles and elements into space planning, to the use of materials, lighting, and finishes to complete a residential interior design project.
Participants will also have to compile a research journal showcasing their progression throughout the course. It can comprise materials such as initial drafts, revisions, notes, and anything that showcases their gradual, deeper understanding and appreciation of design. With this research journal, they will have a clear understanding of how well they are able to reflect the design knowledge into their final residential interior design project.
