Interior Design ONE DAY workshops

Who are the workshops for?

These workshops are aimed at anyone who is interested in knowing more about interior design.  If you enjoy reading home decorating magazines or watching property programmes on TV, you will enjoy learning some of the tricks of the trade.

What will we cover?

In Workshop 1 we will cover five of the ten key concepts – these are the fundamental building blocks of design and can be applied to any decorating scheme, or renovation work.  We will look at how scale, geometry, light, proportion and balance can be used in design. 

In Workshop 2 we will cover colour, shape, texture, rhythm and emphasis.

You can attend one workshop or both – they will be equally interesting and both will offer theory and an opportunity to put what you have learned into practice.

How will I benefit?

A better understanding of how things work in a design scheme will help you make decisions in the future and will save you time and money.   If you can put together a design plan with confidence you will only buy what you know will work, whether it’s paint, a piece of furniture or a floor covering.  There are so many products available in the High Street and on-line, everyone needs a bit of help selecting the right colours and materials.  You will approach your next decorating project in a completely new way and enjoy it all the more.
