Completing courses and training is becoming increasingly more important to the remodeling, interior design and decoration expertise. Today, we work with contractors, architects, engineers, craftsmen, furniture dealers, and business and homeowners. To become a successful interior, we need a well-rounded education and the skills to work within many disciplines (architecture; graphic design; decorative arts; and textile, furniture, and lighting design, engineers).

• Textiles, materials, color, space planning, sustainability, and more
