Interior design students recreated a room in their homes as a project, incorporating their creative works without a budget limit.

After selecting a room, students choose elements such as flooring, wallpaper, and new furniture.

“They had to put all that creativity into a mood board of sense,” Ms. Trahms said. 

The students will take measurements of the room and draw those dimensions on graph paper.

After they do that, they go into the digital app, Floor Planner, and make a 3D model. They can find actual furniture, put it in, and rearrange it.

“I think when it gets down to the nitty-gritty of things, they realize how much actually goes into redesigning a room,” Ms. Trahms said.

Interior design opens doors to many careers, and even if students don’t like the class, they will likely use it in their lives.

This class empowers students to express themselves through their living spaces.

“It’s kind of like fashion in a way that you can kind of show an example of how your unique style is shown throughout the spaces around you,” Trahms said.
