‘I had heard about course many times and for me it seemed a little unnecessary; I was already a qualified Interior Designer who had been designing kitchens for 8 years. However part of me was always interested in doing the course…and WOW, I have just completed the first block course and absolutely loved it! The week was more in depth than I thought it would be, we explored many fundamentals of kitchen design, from optimal dimensions, space planning, considerations to make with different styles of architecture, to structures behind the initial consultations, developing the brief, and building strong client relationships. Overall the course was 100% worthwhile, interesting, and very enjoyable. I would definitely do it again.”
