Description About Materials and Finishes in Interior Design

The interior design world is always upgrading and improving all the aspects that contribute to a better design and therefore a better lifestyle.

The options of materials and finishes are growing day by day, we never had more access to a variety of raw materials and technologically sophisticated surfaces and styles like we do in the present. The market is full of choices and possibilities that can get you overwhelmed and maybe a little bit off-track.

The smart and ideal decision taken when deciding on a specific finish is all based on the context, meaning that every case or project in interior design requires a specific finish treatment. For that reason, I intended to clarify and elaborate in this course 7 main materials and finishes in interior design.

• Definition of the material,
• Types and subcategories of the material,
• Finishes available for this material,

Instructor: Joelle Maatouk

Throughout my courses, I strive to help graduates and enthusiasts in interior design to managing successfully their projects and business, and that is through the main expertise of the practical world.

With more than 8 years of experience in the interior design field, I managed to set the priorities to what makes me successful in this big artistic world. But that wasn’t easy; as I graduated with a beautiful bag of theoretical knowledge, I had a hard time coping with the customer considerations, the execution phase, and the huge market.

For that reason, I indented to create beneficial courses that will help all those considering the interior design field and explain hands-on, and with clear straightforward content the requirements that will make it easier for you to start building your career.

I, therefore, hope that you join me in different courses in order to master the interior design field.
