The course is designed for participants to understand how to apply the concepts of three-dimensional design to the reality of a finished space. They will learn how to use floors, walls and ceilings to create a beautiful and functional setting to support furnishing choices. 

They will also learn how to specify finishes that have the greatest impact for the least expenditure and how to identify finishes that suit the functional requirements of any end use.
