Interior Design Course after 12th

Interior Design after 12th

The short-term Interior design training workshop after 12th approaches complex projects: housing, working areas, leisure areas, public areas, sets, and commercial architecture
The student must be able to:

  • Analyse a programme
  • Prioritize data
  • Develop a concept and create it choosing its volume, material, and colours
  • Make formal choices
  • Make technical decisions
  • Produce structured, visual elements so as to present one project
  • Drafting, axes, cuts, outlines, perspectives, material boards, models

Outline for Interior design course
Objectives
1. To introduce the student to basic principles of design & visual representation techniques, enabling them to produce concept sketches, measured drawings & 3d drawings of their design.
2. To familiarize the student with interior space planning, right from the design brief to the final design proposal stage of a project.
3. To enable students to use AutoCAD for designing, rendering 2d, rendering 3d drawings & drawing layouts.
