Course Description
All rooms are first and foremost functional spaces, in which we live, eat, entertain, sleep, read, dress, bathe etc. If the room does not meet its first critical criteria of functionality – it really won’t matter how beautiful it looks!
So before you begin to consider how the room will look and feel, you need to plan the space.

The course content could have been more effective by including examples related to space planning. For instance, providing a specific square footage for a room and explaining how to identify primary and secondary spaces would have added clarity. Additionally, demonstrating how and why bubble diagrams are used in the planning process would have enhanced the learning experience.

the whole explanation is too simple, it could be better if the instructor can put more detailed explanation and case study

This is a great introduction to space planning. The course clearly explained the technical considerations to space planning and good planning. I appreciated the introduction to key concepts and their significance to planning a functional and aesthetically pleasing room.

I have chosen to shift my career and just beginning with Interior Design. This knowledge is first steps to my new career. My earlier one being e-learning development :) From an e-learning course (online course) perspective, this seem to me like an audio integrated into a Power Point slide with quiz. But effective to start with.
