Event Details

Join us for this class on Interior Design Made Simple provided by Gale Presents: Udemy. Attendees will meet in-person as a group to view and participate in this online video course. 

Do you find yourself struggling to pull together a room in a way that is both functional and aesthetically pleasing?  

Do you think that interior design is all art and no science?  

If you answered yes to either or both of these questions, then this is the class for you!  In this course, you will learn that you can actually use an easy, systematic approach for creating beautiful and functional designs for the primary rooms in your home.

What You'll Learn

Be able to completely design a room end-to-end using a simple 10-step approach.  Specifically, you will learn how to:

  • Measure a room to maximize the use of your space and select appropriately sized furniture

  • Create different room layout options for family rooms, living rooms, dining rooms and bedrooms.

  • Identify different interior design styles and select your own style for decorating

  • Create a cohesive interior design color scheme

  • Select the appropriate sized rug and furniture for a room

  • Learn the secret for making off-the-shelf drapes look custom

  • Create a layered lighting scheme that is both functional and dramatic

Who Should Attend

The ideal student for this course is a person who is interested in creating functional and aesthetically pleasing rooms in their home but does not already have a lot of knowledge in interior design.

About the Presenter

Erikka Fogleman, an Interior Designer, shares "While Interior design is my main career and passion, I also absolutely love to teach others. I’ve been designing and redesigning rooms for as long as I can remember – first for myself, then for friends and family, and decided to make it my full-time career.  Today, I own a thriving interior design business in residential design, and have expanded to commercial work as well.  I graduated from the Interior Design program at the New York Institute of Art and Design."
