Kitchen and Bathroom Planning and Design Online Short Course
Course description
Join us on Kitchen and Bathroom Planning and Design and be guided through the process of planning and designing a kitchen and bathroom project for a residential interior.
Kitchens and Bathrooms are the most complex and expensive part of any interior space and are considered a specialised arm of the industry. They both involve regulations, detained planning, installing services, controlling budgets and producing stunning additions to the interior. This course will help you to understand all of these elements and allow you to make informed design decisions within these spaces.
You will learn how to write a detailed client brief and translate this into a functional and visual space. You will be guided through via inspiring and informative lectures, demonstrations and tutorials and develop the knowledge and tools to communicate your ideas.
This is a perfect platform for which to launch your specialisation in this field or to help you design your own interior spaces with confidence.
Who should attend
Ideal for practicing interior designers, and others keen to gain a working knowledge of kitchen and bathroom planning and design. It will also suit anyone interested in investigating new ideas and inspirations for their home, along with students on related courses. Basic drawing technical skills required. Please note that this course benefits students being able to allocate time to work on their projects outside of the classroom.
