About the lesson

This class is for aspiring interior designers. The focus is to learn how to become an interior designer that not only designs beautiful interiors but designs spaces that are nurturing, intuitive and functional.

In these sessions you will explore the boundaries of interior design which considers a client's space, lifestyle, and the art of storytelling, as I always believe that spaces should walk you through the journey and tell the story of the people who live and work in them. You will learn how to design aesthetic spaces that are intuitive, functional, and nurturing. From brief to completion, you will learn how to carefully curate a selection of furniture, finishes, floristry, accessories, art and even scents, to unearth your design story. You will also learn how to collaborate with your client at each stage, taking into consideration the brief, location, and their personal taste.
