Interior Design Step 1 - Colour and Design (09V230CL/22)

What will I learn?

On this course, guided by the tutor, you will learn how to create and use mood boards. You will design and use your own stencils and complete a simple cushion cover or a wall hanging to take home with you and add to your chosen room.

What is it like to learn with East Riding Adult Learning and Employability?

At East Riding Adult Learning and Employability we pride ourselves on the support we give to our learners, from the very time you contact us, to the day you achieve your goals.

If you choose to join this course you will be supported by our dedicated staff, learn in a small friendly and welcoming group, have the opportunity to take part in activities to practice your skills, be encouraged to continue to practice when you are away from the classroom and receive lots of encouragement to help you build both your skills and your confidence.

As well as working in groups, you will benefit from regular time working with your tutor, discussing your progress and planning your next steps.  They will also tell you about all of the other great opportunities that you have access to including help with developing your skills, joining one of our creative skills classes or sessions to improve your health, wellbeing, confidence or resilience. If you are looking for work or aiming for a change of role, then your tutor will also make you aware of the employability programmes we have available to support you in achieving your employment goals.

Our team will be there to support you at every step of your journey and we always welcome your feedback to help us ensure that you feel safe, happy, supported and welcome.

What do I need to join the course?

Enthusiasm to learn more! You do not need to have any previous experience or knowledge of interior design to join this course. Some basic maths skills would be an advantage as you will need to be able to do some simple calculations to use rulers and other measuring equipment.

What do I need to provide for the first session?

Notepad and pen and an image of the room you want to redesign; bring your own fabric swatches if you have a particular fabric you wish to use in your design.

Our tutor will advise you about any additional resources you may like to bring later in the course dependent on your individual design.

What could I do next?

You may wish to progress to our Step 2 Interior design course or consider some of our other Adult Learning courses such as knitting, dressmaking, creative writing and poetry, mindfulness and photography or computer skills, English, maths and employability.

Can we help you to learn?
