Why I Don’t Love My Renovation — Creating Design Clarity

The Pointers in the Mess: Why I Don’t Love My Renovation (And What That Feeling Is Really Telling You) Imagine a group of people who have lived their whole lives underground.

Design For You As A Qualified Interior Designer And Architect

Does ‘Your Unique Home Design Personality’ include designing my specific renovation or room refresh?

No, in a nutshell.   The ‘Your Unique Home Design Personality’ coursework takes you up to the point where you begin the design process.   I ask you to put down the paint charts, and your sketchbooks with possible concept ideas, and STOP pushing that big ‘green-means-go’ action button, so you can get fully prepared to take on the complexities of a new renovation, room refresh, or design from scratch.   If that disappoints you, then you may not be suited to this course. I only want people who want to achieve outstanding results in their renovating journey and know

How Much Time Do I Need to Commit each Week to Your Unique Home Design Personality?

How Much Time Do I Need To Commit Each Week To Your Unique Home Design Personality?   There is no one-size-fits-all answer to this question.   It is almost impossible to answer because every Your Unique Home Design Personality student starts from a different place and has their own unique circumstances and experiences…   For example, Are you currently working full-time or part-time?
