About this course

This course replaces guesswork with a repeatable method for designing residential interiors. You will work from the same elements and principles taught in design school, apply real numbers for furniture clearances and lighting levels, and produce a complete scheme document and mood board for one room. Every lesson centres on a decision you have to make and the rule of thumb that resolves it.
