This second-level course deals with our relation to space, form, and environment in the residential, hospitality, and retail arenas.  Emphasis is on spatial problem-solving; how human factors influence design, and applying design principles to projects of varying scale, materials, and structures.  Continue to develop and expand your ability to tackle the challenges of more complex design issues through analysis and consideration of professional design problems.  Strengthen drafting and rendering skills.  Examine storage solutions and product display systems.  Study the application of color, materials, and finishes for commercial design projects.  Since the traditional drafting method is employed throughout this course, students are required to have either attended ELC's Interior Design Level 1 or be able to demonstrate basic traditional drafting techniques with the use of a T-Square Ruler, Architect's Scale, and Triangle Rulers.  Students will have an opportunity to develop design projects based on their interests.

Additional topics include:

• Drafting for Interior Design

• Color and Pattern in Interior Design

• Interior Design Industry

• Interior Design: Kitchen and Bath

• Introduction to the use of Photoshop in Interior Design

• Lighting for Interior Design

• Presentation Techniques for Interior Designers

• Sourcing for Interior Design

• Introduction to Model Construction for Interior Design (time permitting)
