Course outline

The Advanced Diploma of Interior Design and Decoration, built in response to changing industry standards is your ticket to a career as a professional in the field. This course arms you with the skills to gain industry recognition as an Interior Designer creating innovative spaces that stand out. Whether you’re creating from the ground up, revamping residential spaces or taking on new commercial projects, you’ll learn to fuse style, comfort and sustainability.

Throughout this hands-on course, you’ll dive into projects that push boundaries and smash expectations. You’ll develop decorative schemes for all kinds of interiors, learning how to pick the right furnishings and finishes that don’t just fit, but disrupt the norm. With projects focused on sustainability and blending classic vibes with modern grit, you’ll get real-world experience in documenting designs and bringing them to life. This isn’t about playing it safe – you’ll sharpen industry skills (from supervising interiors projects to getting wet rooms waterproofed), build an entrepreneurial mindset and tackle ethical design in a digitally-charged world. By plugging into the design scene, you’ll build a folio that will prep you to take on an exciting career.
