Course overview

The Certificate in Interior Design Level 2 (Commercial) will teach you how to develop and design commercial interiors, ranging from hotels, bars, restaurants and workspaces. Available full or part time, it is the second of two programs in our Diploma series. 

Covering all aspects of commercial design – from the preparation of client materials to project management – this course will give you the opportunity to work on three real-world projects (retail, food & beverage, and office space design), interact with and present your final proposal to the client, and develop advanced creative and technical skills using design software.

Everything is focused on real-world teaching, we meet with clients, we interview them, learning what they want and apply it to our design before we present it to them at the end of the project.

I like the teaching method as it is very practical and you learn by working on your own projects. Also, the fact that the groups are small so that you get a lot of attention from the teachers. I enjoyed all the site visits and learned a lot from them. I also appreciated very much the high-level clients that we got the opportunity to meet and work for.
