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.
