In this ongoing class, students will learn to create and execute interior design drawings, including renderings, elevations, perspectives, and more.

Class Experience

Does your student love finding new ways to express their creative side? Do they have a love of interior design or architecture? Each week, students will learn how to create new interior design drawings. We'll explore terminology and ways to bring onto paper the designs they imagine. Students will learn about and execute hand-drawn renderings, elevation, perspectives, detail drawings, furniture drawings, texture drawings and more. Students will discover how to use different mediums to render...

Students will learn real-world floorplan and elevation symbols and techniques that I use every day in my design business. Students will have fun thinking critically about the designs their completing for "clients" as they draw. Students will learn how to create interior design and architectural renderings, elevations, perspectives, details drawing, and more.

About the Teacher: Hello parents! My name is Kristin and I own and run an Interior Design Build company that focuses on complete design build projects, with a focus on great architectural and interior design. I also teach project-led learning at our local micro school and lead a Homeschool Adventures Field Trip company. My goal is to help kids learn real-world skills in areas they're truly interested in. I teach in a lighthearted manner, and I value getting to know each student personally. 

I have worked in the home design industry for 10 years in interior design, architectural design, home staging, real estate, and designing investment properties. I have worked with several students and interns, guiding them in building their design talents and in learning more about the industry. I love helping students discover their love of design and guiding them in the steps it takes to become a great designer!

Homework Offered
Assessments Offered
Grades Offered

white paper (computer paper, drawing, or sketch paper will all work)

pencil or drawing pencils (I recommend a mechanical pencil, but any sharpened pencil will work. Some students like to use a set of drawing pencils when drawing furniture- this is completely optional.) 

a set of colored pencils (Any set will work. I use Prismacolor.)

ruler (any ruler will work. I use a flexible clear ruler.)

fine tip black marker (Any marker will work. I use this Micron set: https://www.amazon.com/Sakura-Pigma-30067-Micron-Blister/dp/B004QHI43S/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=micron+set&qid=1619620973&s=office-products&sr=1-1)

graph paper with 1/4" grid

eraser

Optional: drafting tape. Drafting tape is used for holding paper down to a drawing surface. Drafting tape is specially made to not rip the paper when removed. This tape is extremely useful when drawing lines with a ruler and some students find it helpful.  

We will use a computer printout for one class. This will be available in the classroom.
