Course Title: Holistic Interior Design International Diploma
HOLISTIC INTERIOR DESIGN Full Internatonal Diploma for home study Natural Interior Design for harmony and health This is a totally different approach to Interior Design that is in keeping with modern trends and future needs in environmental design.
Most Interior Design training concentrates on creating aesthetically pleasing spaces while Holistic Interior Design emphasises the importance of creating interiors that are in harmony with the individuals who will be using them.
The role of our environment in our physical and mental well-being has for too long been ignored, so you will learn how to redress the balance and create healthy and uplifting environment using colour therapeutics, natural elements and environmentally friendly materials.
Practising designers will find this course allows them to use their talents in a new way and to offer their clients a more personalised service. With the growth in environmental health concerns there is also a growing demand backed by the government in the UK for advisory services in this field. No previous Interior Design training is needed although this course compliments and extends traditional Interior design study.
