Course Description

Successful interior designers use a systematic, repeatable approach to guide projects from concept to completion. This course provides students with a working process for managing a design project. Students are asked to bring to class a design they've completed previously for either a residential or commercial project. After dividing the design into schedules for various elements of the design project (such as furniture, mill work, lighting, paint, floor coverings, fabric and trim, window treatments, accessories and artwork) each item is specified and priced, taking into consideration net/list costs, as well as mark-up standards and time billing. Students are responsible for resourcing all items on the plan, drafting a proposal to clients, preparing purchase orders for vendors and tracking the progress of the project. Students leave the course prepared to invoice their hypothetical client, knowing they are able to meet the client's budget and, ultimately, make a profit.
