Full event details

This course will give you an insight into the world of interior design and inspire you with the confidence to present your own schemes.

It's ideal if you are considering further studies in interior design and wish to start your portfolio.

What You'll Study: 

This is a practical and creative course with some theory and research and is delivered through informal talks and visits to local places of design interest.

You will gain experience of undertaking an interior design scheme and also an understanding of its application in the domestic, residential and commercial sectors.

From simple plan drawings you will gain an understanding of scale before applying colour, furniture and furnishings.

During this course, you will:

  • learn how to develop your creativity regarding interior design
  • give special attention to light, colour, form, texture and how these key elements can define a space
  • look at decorative schemes with the use of wallpaper, upholstery, window treatments and accessories.
  • create a finished, or almost finished, interior design project
  • build a portfolio of new work
  • develop an awareness of the vast range of information relevant to interior designers

Social Events:

We appoint NTU Student Ambassadors who host social events on Monday and Wednesday evening to help you make friends across the whole of our summer school programme for 15 – 17 year olds, which are free to attend.

Duke of Edinburgh: 

This course can count as your Gold DofE Residential Award and is an amazing opportunity to make new friends and memories. It will be fun and gently challenging, allowing you to follow your passion and discover talents you never knew you had.

DofE participants must book both the course and accommodation on campus for this to count towards your Gold Award.

You must also attend the social events that are planned on Monday and Wednesday evenings, and you must plan and attend your own social activities with other participants on Tuesday and Thursday evenings.

Course: £525.00 + (optional) Accommodation: £259.00
