Announcing a new summer design course … INTERIOR DESIGN – ICONIC DESIGNERS !! Due to popular demand, our art and design courses on offer are expanding …

INTERIOR DESIGN – ICONIC DESIGNERS

An iconic design is ground-breaking, sets new standards in its field, and becomes a bench mark for later designs / designers. They’re ground-breaking in terms of materials, how they are engineered, they way they solve design problems or in the features/functions they offer. In this course, we look at a range of iconic designers and their designs for interiors.

This is a 4 week course, running for 4 consecutive Mondays.

Psychology studies

| Homemadeeducation

Psychology is a fascinating subject, and really captures the imagination of young people. It’s dynamic, topical, relevant and engaging … and there are so many different ways to capture the core facts of a topic, in projects and homework assignments.

We love this work, by one of our learners this year, highlighting different lobe functions as part of the Illusions and Perceptions topic!

You can learn a topic and eat it too!
