Interior Design for Everyone
With Catherine Henderson
Chances are you have always had an appreciation for interiors, have a knack with colour and love the texture and pattern of fabric. You probably spend many hours browsing glossy interiors magazines and wondering, “Where do I start?”
Perhaps you are building your dream home and the myriad of choices and decisions has turned it all into a bit of a nightmare! Or maybe a small living room up-date has made you realise that the carpet needs to be replaced throughout and of course this will mean the wall colours will have to change and if they change then the kitchen bench top will look really dated. 'Help! Where do I stop?'
Catherine, a practicing interior designer with 12 years experience, will take you step by step through a series of fun activities and exercises which she has carefully structured to de-mystify the interior design process and provide you with a workable approach as well as plenty of sound, practical advice.
This course is a practical and stimulating introduction to interior design for anyone renovating and decorating or those simply interested in enjoying a creative course in good company.
