How to Become an Up and Coming Interior Designer and Design for Wellbeing

This class is for aspiring interior designers. The focus is to learn how to become an interior designer that not only designs beautiful interiors but designs spaces that are nurturing, intuitive and functional.

In these sessions you will explore the boundaries of interior design which considers a client's space, lifestyle, and the art of storytelling, as I always believe that spaces should walk you through the journey and tell the story of the people who live and work in them. You will learn how to design aesthetic spaces that are intuitive, functional, and nurturing. From brief to completion, you will learn how to carefully curate a selection of furniture, finishes, floristry, accessories, art and even scents, to unearth your design story. You will also learn how to collaborate with your client at each stage, taking into consideration the brief, location, and their personal taste.

Hey there! I’m Jed, an experienced Interior Designer with more than 10 years of experience as an Interior Designer. I have successfully completed many Interior Design projects in Canada, Philippines, Thailand, Singapore and Europe. One of my most notable projects was featured in a known interior design magazine in Thailand in 2019.

My goal is to identify your strengths and help solidify your identity or personal aesthetic as an Interior Designer. Best for beginners or first to second year students struggling to find their signature style and for third or fourth year students who are looking to fine tune what they already have going on. I will teach you how to have great balance of creativity that can be easily and efficiently executed in real life settings. Why I do this: This is in honour of my former professor Joseph Geraghty (he's still alive), who shaped me to be the designer I am and taught me everything I know today.
