Editor’s Update: This article was originally published when Juliettes Interiors offered this course from our former Chelsea showroom. We no longer run this course, and we no longer operate from the Chelsea showroom. Juliettes Interiors now works with private clients, interior designers and trade professionals through our London design studio, with consultations available by appointment where suitable.
For current services, please visit our luxury interior design and bespoke furniture pages.
As we are sure you remember us saying recently, it’s a brand new term here at Juliettes Design School. Well, we are delighted to announce the launch of our new and exclusive Bespoke One-to-one Interior Design Course. Perfect for anyone wanting to learn how to design their own luxury interiors, the One-to-One course offers an individual experience and 5 days’ undivided attention of a skilled tutor. Our existing small group courses only take a maximum of 5 students so you are always guaranteed a high level of personal attention. This course, however, takes it one step further.
A Truly Individual Interior Design Course
You will spend 5 consecutive days working intensively with a member of our award-winning design team who will guide you through the fundamental steps of designing a room of your choice. You’ll also have access to our extensive library of luxury fabrics and finishes, plus a day spent at the Chelsea Harbour Design Centre gathering inspiration, ideas, colour charts and fabric samples. We will show you how to plan and design your chosen room, holding your hand all the way. And, by the end of the week, you will have a finished room design with floor plans and elevations to scale. In addition, you’ll have mood board, calculations of quantities needed and costing schedules. Finally, you’ll have the knowledge you need to book and manage contractors if necessary. All you need to do then is take everything home ready to get started on your project.

Come with a Group
If you love the idea of designing your own luxury interiors – but would prefer to come with a friend or a small group – it is just as easy to book a course. Again, just choose your dates and book your week. Of course, if you are booking a course as a gift or for a special occasion, simply let us know. It could be a birthday treat, a hen week, a friends’ reunion or a nursery design party for new parents or parents-to-be. Whatever the occasion, we will do our utmost to make it a truly memorable week. What to expect from a Small Group Course.

After completing the Design School’s Interior Design Course, students will be able to realise a design concept and fulfil the basic design requirements to successfully implement their concept from start to finish, including project management, final installation and snagging. Students will also be equipped with the tools to plan a simple room layout to scale, create room and lighting schemes, and communicate ideas in a creative and professional way. If you feel that you still need some hand holding, ongoing support will be available.
