What you learn

The same twelve modules, from wherever you are.

The theory, drawings and assignments of the campus Certificate, set by the same faculty. The practical trade supervision belongs to the campus programme.

The visual language of design

Our philosophy and the twelve elements of design — a way of understanding what you are actually seeing.

History, style and architecture

From cave painting to the present day, densely illustrated and more useful than it sounds.

Space, scale and planning

Space as concept and as commodity. You produce a space plan and begin the project you carry through the course.

Light, colour and finishes

Orientation and layered lighting, colour psychology, and specifying finishes for impact at least cost.

Fabrics, furniture and the client

Window treatments, furniture and accessories, and the procedures that carry a design to completion.

Communicating and setting up practice

Documenting a scheme for clients and contractors, then the business and legal groundwork of your own studio.

Learn to see differently.

The theory in your own time, in the order it is taught on campus.

Campus or online

What the online course does not include.

The theory, drawings and assignments are the same. Four things belong to the campus programme only — stated plainly, so you can choose with your eyes open.
