How to Become an Up and Coming Interior Designer and Design for Wellbeing

From 78.78 C$ /h

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.

I specialise in teaching AutoCAD, Rhino, 3Ds Max, Illustrator, InDesign and Photoshop to students of various levels.

My style of teaching is focused on practice. All classes have their goal - to expand the theory and practice to create something complete at the end. I think practice, whether or not you are a beginner or more advanced, is important for learning. Each class is personalized to the needs and interests of the students.

I can also realise personal 2D, 3D design projects.

DIY skills are very vital especially when you have a certain budget to adhere to after you consult your nearest Home Depot or Brico and find out that quotation cost and estimations are quite expensive!
With my assistance you could cut cost and get your home or renovations done in your own unique time, pace, style, budget and taste especially in the era of DIY! I could either assist you or take charge...the ball is in your court!

In this class, you will learn everything you need to know about AutoCAD from design to panel layout.

AutoCAD is one of the few programs, something difficult to master for all the commands to be handled and it takes a century to master line thicknesses, drawing and not to mention 3d, but although it may not seem like it, it is quite easy when we work on it. that alone guides us. Sign up, designer, architect or furniture designer.

Classes are taught at the student's home or via web cam.

Mastering software only requires good supervision, that's why I offer this training to better guide you and help you produce a project from A to Z, from drawing plans to rendering photorealists of your project. Archicad and Lumion software are tools that will now make your job easier to better design the space.

Teaching Methodology in Interior Design:

-Teaching Techniques and Methods: I use a structured and personalized approach to foster creativity and understanding of key concepts. Lessons include hands-on projects in space design, materials, layouts, and ambiance, with case studies to strengthen analytical and creative skills. Teaching techniques also incorporate software use, such as Homestyler, Revit, SketchUp, AutoCAD, Lumion, and Adobe Suite.

-Typical Course Structure: Each class begins with a discussion to assess the student’s expectations. We then delve into the topic of the day, covering theoretical concepts, a practical exercise, and a critical analysis, followed by additional resources for further study.

-What Sets Me Apart as an Instructor: My international experience offers a broad perspective on design trends. I emphasize creativity while providing a solid foundation and a supportive, yet rigorous teaching style.

-Target Audience: My courses are designed for high school students, early university students in architecture or design, and anyone looking to discover or deepen their understanding of interior design.

Master the complete toolkit of modern architecture and design practice, from digital software to traditional drawing techniques. As a practicing architect with 15+ years of international experience and 150+ successful students, I teach the essential skills that bridge traditional fundamentals with cutting-edge technology.
Digital Tools: SketchUp (advanced modelling, V-Ray, Enscape, D5 rendering), Rhino (precision surface modelling, KeyShot workflows), Vectorworks (Architect, Landmark, Spotlight modules), reality capture integration, GIS workflows, and AI-driven design processes.

Traditional Skills: Descriptive geometry (orthographic projection, axonometric systems, perspective theory), hand drawing techniques using pencils, ink, felt-tip pens, and watercolours, spatial visualisation, and technical drawing fundamentals.

Sketching Module: Can be approached through analog tools (traditional drawing materials) or digital platforms, including Morpholio Trace, Procreate, and Sketchbook, allowing you to choose your preferred medium while learning the same fundamental sketching principles.

Disciplines Covered: Architecture, interior design, landscape architecture, product design, furniture design, lighting design, MEP systems, and show design applications.
My teaching philosophy combines fundamental geometric principles with modern digital workflows. Whether sketching by hand or modelling in 3D, the same spatial understanding drives both approaches. I integrate traditional drawing skills with digital modelling, showing how hand sketching informs digital design and how software tools can enhance traditional techniques.

After an initial assessment, I'll create your personalised roadmap using flexible learning formats from structured instruction to project collaboration. You'll gain access to curated resources, technique recordings, and ongoing support, mastering both timeless design principles and contemporary digital tools that practicing professionals rely on daily.
