Nicola Franzoni
"I arrived in Australia in 2007, to share my life with my future wife.
When I started this course I had no previous experience in Interior Design whatsoever! I needed a change in career...
Together with my wife we opened an interiors shop in the Northern Rivers. I decided to look for a course online because I did not have time to follow classes as I had to keep the shop open.
After a long search online I found the Interior Design Institute, which was really affordable and I felt it would give me the flexibility I needed.
Although I did not have any previous experience, I really enjoyed the course right from the first module! It gives you a lot of opportunities to develop an eye to recognize beauty in an interior context and to help you to find your own"voice"...
Personally I found that the most exciting part of the course was the Assignments at the end of each Module; they are all challenging enough to keep you motivated, but not too hard to discourage you. I never saw them as a test but more as an opportunity to put into practice what I was reading and to be able to apply it in an"almost" real situation.
I also found very useful the suggestions of Robyn, my Tutor, who I want to thank for being always helpful and encouraging!
At the end, I would like to say to all the guys out there: interior design is not only a woman's job!..."

"I now have the qualification to turn my passion into a career. Now that I have knowledge of the principles of design, I look at the world (architecture, furniture, colour etc) differently.
I also feel confident to interact with people in the industry and turn my dreams into a reality. I am so excited to start my own small business and create beautiful spaces that will make people happy.
I loved my online tutor, Wendi! We developed a rapport. She was so friendly and genuine in her interest, support and encouragement. Wendi gave really helpful feedback and was prompt in answering my questions.
Home Beautiful showed my work in their special edition of 'The Essential Bathroom Guide" in 2010 and they will be featuring my work again in Jan 2011!..."

"A number of years ago I made enquiries to the Interior Design Institute regarding their online Interior Design Course. However, at the time, I was working full time and upon reflection, felt that I didn’t have the necessary time to study any course and didn’t feel confident enough or have the finances to enrol and pursue my love of interior decorating and design.
Many of my friends tried to encourage me to pursue my"flare" but unfortunately, I didn’t — my mistake! Thankfully, the Institute stayed in touch and continued to offer their course. This year, both my work and financial circumstances changed and I decided to enrol.
Having just finished the 3 month online course, I wish that I had made the decision to enrol all those years ago, when I first enquired. I live in Perth and found the opportunity to study with the Institute in Sydney a wonderful experience and one I would not have been able to do had it not been available online.
The course is very comprehensive, interesting and packed with information to build a participating student’s knowledge and understanding of the universal language of interior design. While having no previous experience in the design field and with only a natural"flare" for design and decorating, I now have a better understanding of why it is that I have an"eye" for the things I do and a better knowledge of the visual language of design
The online tutor / pupil relationship provided as part of the course, is an ideal and encouraging arrangement. My enthusiasm throughout the course and in completing the assignments was rewarded and supplemented with complimentary, constructive and helpful feedback from my online tutor.
All assignments were submitted online and results were quickly returned once the assignment was marked by the tutor. Whenever required, I also received helpful and comprehensive direction and advice from the Student Support team. At this stage, I do not have employment or any prospect of employment in the field of interior design, but will continue to undertake personal projects with enthusiasm and new found knowledge and continue to enjoy my love of interior design and decorating.
I encourage anyone remotely thinking about doing an Interior Design Course, to enrol in the Interior Design Institute’s online course without hesitation - I am so glad that I decided to do so!..."

"I needed a course that I could fit in to my busy lifestyle, working in the family business, running a busy household whilst bringing up a family and in between developing my new Interior Design business.
The course content & assessment criterion offered by the Interior Design Institute sounded exactly what I wanted & the fact that I could complete it online in my own time really suited me.
It was great having immediate access to each module once the previous module was completed. I'm pleased I didn't have access to them all from the very beginning, it would have been all too daunting and I may never have completed the course!
The Student Support Team were fantastic, I never had to wait for an answer to my queries and my Tutor was unbelievable. There is a definite art to be able to teach & encourage whilst not sounding either too nice/fluffy or alternatively being too condescending or critical. I wanted to learn so I would have been disappointed by someone who gave only praise & no constructive feedback. At the same time to be too critical would have been confidence destroying.
As it turned out I actually looked forward to my assignments being marked not only because of the positive feedback I received, but how much I'd learn each time. Each assessment was very specific & so encouraging.
I’ve gained so much confidence along with invaluable knowledge of the fundamentals of the industry, also how to talk the talk & ultimately see my first of many paid projects to fruition.
It’s taken me a year to complete in between everything else & I can’t believe that instead of being elated to be finished I’m strangely disappointed that it’s over..."

"This course was just right for me, in fact perfect!
The most important thing for me was being able to work at home, at my own pace and fit in the assignments for the course with my other commitments. Also, because there is no deadline alleviated any pressure to complete on time, but it does mean you have to be self-motivating.
The supporting material for each module was extremely helpful and something I can always refer to in the future. If ever I was in any doubt as to what was required for a particular module, a question to the support team was just an email away, where a quick response came back to put my mind at ease. My assigned tutor was excellent and always gave me useful and constructive feedback which was encouraging and which spurred me on to the next module.
I found access to the internet site was easy to follow and the site well laid out and easy to move around, which made submitting the assignments fairly straight forward.
This course has given me the opportunity to achieve a qualification in something I am interested in and love doing, as well as giving me another"string to my bow" in work I am already undertaking. I would definitely recommend this course, especially because it is achievable if you are really interested in the subject.
I plan to market myself by advertising locally, and networking through building contractors, estate agents & architects. I can’t wait to get my first commissioned assignment."

"Design and style have been a passionate love of mine from a very young age. To finally achieve a diploma in design is a dream come true and all thanks to the professionalism of the Interior Design Institute.
I chose the Interior Design Institute over several other schools advertised on the internet as the course was far superior in presentation, style, aesthetics, information, cost and suitability. Previously I had been in Administration so when the chance presented itself, I took the initiative.
The course has been a much loved challenge as I had never previously attempted anything by correspondence. I found the course actually propelling me forward, breaking new boundaries and trying to excel further, to the best of my ability.
As I have held several Administrative positions, possess a Diploma in Business Management and teamed with my Interior Design Diploma creates a comfortable position for my entry into the design world.
Over my life span I have redesigned about eight of my own properties commencing with my parents home when I was about thirteen, I intend to do Corporate work now and design offices in order to learn and gain more experience.
I have enjoyed the course immensely. Accessing material was easy thanks to good website presentation and easy to send off assignments. My tutor, Monique Roberts, with her fabulous design expertise and knowledge helped me enormously with input after each assignment.
There were always lots of internet references in place for students to explore. One particular assignment I found educationally brilliant, a broad lifetime knowledge of art history all tied into one area. Very comprehensive. I will always be returning to this sight for future reference. The educational calibre of each assignment in this course is excellent. I would highly recommend anyone who loves design to seriously consider doing the course."

"Completing the Interior Design Institute's Diploma was beneficial in so many ways. I currently have a career as a Colour Consultant & needed to move forward. Finishing the course has enabled me to seek a more professional career path.
The modules were easy to understand & the assignments were challenging on a highly creative level. My tutor Robyn was more than helpful & her comments on completing my assignments inspired me to strive harder.
I have full confidence in my abilities as a Designer & Colour Consultant & know this will assist me in reaching for new heights in my career!!......
I have just completed my website, placed a local advertisement & have ordered my business cards!.....already I have had a few enquiries in one week!!.....my first official appointment is in two days!!
I have told all my friends about the course & they are now considering starting!
Thanks to all the team at the institute....especially Robyn....wish me luck!!!..."

"The Interior Design Institute provided me with the basic knowledge I needed for a future in Interior Design.
Unlike other students, I was given the opportunity to undertake an Interior Design position without any specific Interior Design experience and the Interior Design Institute has provided me with the skills and knowledge I needed to narrow the gap between more experienced interior designers and myself.
Not only has the course allowed me to gain an understanding in fundamental Interior Design principals, but has also changed the way I think and design. I have redeveloped the way I go about the design process and it has allowed me to demonstrate to my clients, employer and most importantly myself that I can create practical and inspiring interiors. The course has provided me with Interior Design terminology, skills and knowledge which I gained, not only through each of the twelve modules, but also through each assignment. With the freedom to work at my own pace for each module and assignment, along with the positive feedback I received after each assignment, were fundamental in increasing my general Interior Design knowledge. This increased my confidence which I can use in approaching both my clients and employer.
The Interior Design Institute from day one has been an organised, approachable online education institute, always quick to respond to all my questions, concerns and most importantly, my assignment results.
With the good fortune of already being employed as an Interior Designer, I would recommend the Interior Design Institute for not only those who are looking at getting into the industry, or just thinking of decorating their homes, but also for those who are already in the profession and need to broaden their knowledge and way of thinking.
I enjoyed every minute of my online education experience."

"This course has really opened my eyes to online learning, it really is do able! If I had to go to a TAFE or university to complete this course I would not have been able to complete it as I just do not have the time.
The tutor support was fantastic and the student support team were equally great. Assignments were easy to submit, results were quick and easy to retrieve.
I am just so happy with my outcome, I now have a diploma in interior design with no stress at all. It was fun and it was a hobby for 12 weeks, with such a fantastic outcome. I would recommend it to anyone!"

"I wasn't sure what was involved in online study and was a little skeptical at first as to how far it would get me and how beneficial it would be. The interior design institute's course has completely changed my mind.
I've learnt so much during the course that I am now confident to go and look for a job in my dream field of work. I've always wanted to do something creative and when I saw the institute and the design course I thought it would be right up my alley.
I was right. The modules were so detailed and informative and the response time from the student support team and answers from my tutor were extremely fast. The best part of studying on line was the fact I didn’t have to give up full time work to study, I could study at home in the evenings and on weekends — pretty much whenever I wanted to.
I loved the fact there was no specific time frame for each individual module so if I didn’t have time to complete one that week, I would just wait until the next week. I wasn’t under pressure because I went at my own pace.
I found myself making more and more time to study because I was enjoying it, not because I HAD to do it. It has helped my friends and family as well. My parents are currently building and my mum is forever asking my opinion! I now give her ideas and suggestions that I never would have known before this course. She’s so grateful and recommending me to all her friends!
I am hoping to enter residential design and with my diploma in hand am now confident to pursue that dream. Thank you so much for the opportunity."

"After studying at university for four years I decided I was specialising in the wrong field of design and that my passion lay with interior design. However, financially it was impossible for me to continue full time study, so when I found out about this correspondence course I automatically looked into it.
I was hesitant at first as I was unfamiliar with correspondence courses and there recognition, however soon after starting the course I was very impressed with not only the structure but the quality and depth of the information in the modules and also the quick and honest response by the tutors.
To be honest after spending a lot more time and money on my university course, I thought the information and support from the interior design institute was much more informative, enjoyable and useful to my career. I am currently working as a sales/design assistant for a high end furniture store and the skills I have learnt from this course have allowed me to be more confident in giving advice to my clients.
The course has also inspired me to look into starting my own colour consulting service on the side- which is something I have always wanted to do. I would recommend the course to any one who has an interest in interior design or looking to further their career but doesn’t have the time or finance to study full time. The modules are informative, the marking is fair and the support is great."

"Having resigned from my job as a rural GP when my husband had accepted a job in Melbourne and our family had to move there, I felt that, no longer working long hours, I could use my time to learn something I would really enjoy - either pilates or interior design.
I researched courses in both areas online and the Interior Design Institute's course stood out for its stylish and informative website and total flexibility so I subscribed to it. The fact that I could study at my own pace in my own time allowed me to complete this course amidst moving house, looking after a family of four and settling my children into new school and childcare.
The structured and no-nonsense approach of the course appealed to me all the way through. From teaching the very basic aspects of design, to interior design history to making us students aware of the personal aspects for clients to open their private homes to a"scrutinizing" interior designer made this course so realistic and down-to-earth.
I loved the fact that I could spend hours reading through beautiful interior magazines, saying I was researching my latest assignment. My tutor Monique's comments were always constructive and extremely encouraging and the help from student support was prompt at all times and provided me with a lot of additional information.
This course has given me a lot of confidence to approach the renovation of our own house and our friends have asked me to help re-design their study and spare room and my brother is waiting for me to help renove their bathroom. These renovating jobs will be added to my portfolio and I am keen to learn more, get more practice and never return to practising medicine but enjoying interior design instead."

"This course was fantastic!!! I had so much fun completing each assignment and have learnt so many new things!
I was really looking forward to starting my Interior Design Course, but at the same time was worried as to how I would find the time, as I currently work full time and run a household. I was also concerned about the added expenses of the course.
Well, I needn't have worried. The structure of the course at the Institute allows you to work completely at your own pace. I submitted two assignments in one week once, and then didn't submit the next one until 5 weeks later!! And there were no added expenses at all!! Apart from that, the course is very straight to the point. There's no teaching of unnecessary things, just to fill in the time.
The modules are all clear and concise and if you have any queries, the student support team, as well as your personal tutor, are always there to answer your questions.
My tutor Samantha had some great feedback. I loved reading her comments, good and bad, and really tried to take her words into consideration, when submitting the next assignment.
There is no doubt in my mind that completing this course is going to benefit my future career as an Interior Designer. Clients may love your ideas and believe in your skill, but there is something about having that piece of paper that tells them you can really do it, that adds to their piece of mind.
Since completing the course, I have registered a business and have just scored my first job - Scary but so exciting!! A big thanks to the Institute for providing such a great course, and to my tutor Samantha for her words of wisdom. I would recommend this course to anyone looking to get into the industry, or even just for fun!!!"

"I have just completed the Interior Design Course and I loved it!
Because my husband and I travel a lot it was impossible for me to start a class anywhere. When I found your website and read through what it actually involves I thought:"Perfect!" So I enrolled, soon started reading through the first module and loved every one of them.
I enjoyed your tips and ideas, loved looking through magazines to really get an understanding of Interior Design and Architecture and its history. I thought all modules were very useful, some more challenging than others and I felt there was a really good balance. I am someone who gets bored easily with studies but you managed to keep my interest all the way to the end! I was excited about starting every single module! I set myself a timeframe before I started the assignments, which helped me a lot and I really enjoyed not having to attend classes at times that didn't suit me.
If I had a question or weren’t sure about something, Samantha responded within 24hrs and always had great answers and suggestions to help me along. I was a bit shy at the start to ask questions but after I got the first response and it was so helpful and understanding I felt really looked after and motivated.
The course also helped me in deciding which area of Interior Design I want to work in the future and what I want to specialise in. That was really important to me. I am now expecting a baby but once everyone is settled in I will definitely set up a space in the front room of our home and start my own business from there.
I have already my own business cards and lots of interest from friends and family who need a good Interior Designer! I can’t wait to get started!! Thank you so much team, I will be recommending this course to everyone."

"I have just completed the Interior Design Course and I loved it!
Because my husband and I travel a lot it was impossible for me to start a class anywhere. When I found your website and read through what it actually involves I thought:"Perfect!" So I enrolled, soon started reading through the first module and loved every one of them.
I enjoyed your tips and ideas, loved looking through magazines to really get an understanding of Interior Design and Architecture and its history. I thought all modules were very useful, some more challenging than others and I felt there was a really good balance. I am someone who gets bored easily with studies but you managed to keep my interest all the way to the end! I was excited about starting every single module! I set myself a timeframe before I started the assignments, which helped me a lot and I really enjoyed not having to attend classes at times that didn't suit me.

"I recently graduated from the Interior Design Institute achieving a Diploma of Interior Design. Undertaking the course online was ideal for me as a mother of two young children.
My interest in Interior Design was to establish some educational credentials to assist in a newly created business here in Canberra which combines real estate sales with property styling and preparation services. This combination is unique in Canberra, although offered by several companies in Sydney and Melbourne.
I found the course well structured and paced as you can only complete the module at hand, so you avoid trying to move ahead too quickly and it forces you to have a solid understanding of all the elements of design and offering a service as you progress through the modules.
I aimed to have one module per week completed, I think it ended up taking me approximately 16 weeks. In addition the tutors are there to assist as you progress with any questions or assistance whenever required.
The website application is really easy to use and I never had any issues with finding information or submitting my interactive assignments. The modules or tutorials are easy to read, with a lot of examples to show the variances.
I am now in the process of establishing my property styling services in the marketplace here in Canberra and aim to develop and diversify the services I offer over time to suit the market and clientele. All in all, it was a terrific way to establish my educational requirements in Interior Design and I thoroughly enjoyed the course.
Yours Sincerely, Claudine."

"Making the initial decision to complete a course in interior design was honestly made with a little uncertainty as my previous experience is predominantly in the aviation industry as a flight attendant.
So, when I became pregnant with my daughter, I found I had some spare time. It was then I decided to unearth my passion for beautiful furnishings, design, colour and stylish interiors.
The Interior Design Institute offered me the whole package. With the flexibility of on-line learning, I could complete my assignments in my own home, at my own pace at a time that suited me.
Tracey, of student support was always available to answer my questions, for support, advise, information and encouragement at every step. I was given positive, constructive feedback with every assignment and that boosted my confidence and creative ability. If I was seeking further clarification on a particular subject, I was given clear, concise, prompt and professional advice with a wealth of suggestions and ideas.
I am thrilled that I can now express my creativity and look to take up Interior Design as a full-time occupation. I highly recommend the course to anyone who has a passion for style, design, fashion and luxury.
The course has made a tremendous impact on the way in which I put objects together, how I perceive space, my colour selections, and my choice of fabric, furnishings and fittings as well as enhanced my eye for detail.
Of course, learning does not end with the presentation of a diploma; in fact, it is the beginning of an exciting and challenging career. My husband and I are about to embark on our own project renovation. I am excited at the prospect of designing our new surroundings, safe in the knowledge that I am equipped with the skills to create a truly enviable result that will be practical, functional and beautiful, thanks to the Interior Design Institute."

"The Interior Design Institute was great! I breezed through all the assignments thanks to their prompt assistance with any questions I had, and I was so pleased with my results!
Tracey is fantastic, she helped me through every step of the way, and her responses were always more then helpful and so quick! I was so impressed with the professional service that I received from Tracey and my online Tutor, Robyn.
My assignments were always marked quite quickly, and with in-depth feedback and helpful suggestions. I was a little nervous to begin with, to start an"on-line" course, and I was not sure how I could possibly complete it within 12 weeks.
I managed to finish the whole course within 13 weeks and I found the website so easy to use! I can’t thank The Interior Design Institute enough, for getting me started on the road to my own business. I have already been assisting clients with colour suggestions and my portfolio is starting to look good! I’m so excited to get started! Thank you!!!!"

"I have just recently completed my diploma in Interior Design through The Interior Design Institute and loved it!!
Living in the country makes learning and completing different courses very hard as it is very limited to what they teach here. That is why this online study option was perfect for me! It gave me the opportunity to learn about something I have come to be very passionate about not only from the comfort of my own home but also at my own pace.
I found the modules very detailed and thorough and if I had any queries or questions the online support team were very quick to respond to those and extremely helpfull! My assignments were always marked quickly with great feedback which always boosted my confidence and made me sure I had chosen the right career!
So I am now in the process of starting my own business in Interior Desgin and it is thanks to The Interior Desgin Institute!
This is a course I would definately recommend to anyone who is looking for a career change or even to just assist them with renovating their own home! I am excited and also a little nervous about getting out there but I know with the knowledge I have behind me from this course I will be fine! Thanks again..."

"First of all, I would like to thank the author of the Interior Design Course, Wende Reid, for creating such a fantastic course for whoever is interested in studying interior design.
I studied art when I was at high school (in Bangkok) including interior design but after I got in to university I ended up studying something else. That was twenty years ago! I was still dreaming to be an interior designer and I needed to fulfil my passion, but as a full time mother of a two year old boy and having to support the family business, I was wondering how I could make my dream come true. My husband suggested that I study online so I searched and found many Courses but it was The Interior Design Institute that opened my eyes and mind! I decided to go with the The Interior Design Institute as I felt great about what the Institute offered.
I was nervous about my language and my ability to understand and complete the assignments. But I shouldn’t have worried about that at all because the course is set up very well. I could even manage to complete my course in 13 weeks! To my great tutor Robyn, thank you so much for your comments and suggestions on each assignment. My heart was racing every time I submitted my assignment, then waiting for the email that said" Assignment... has been marked". I felt so delightful every time after reading the result and it was a fantastic feeling that I hadn't felt for a long time!
Thank you too Rikki, for helping me when I was struggling with my homework. It was very helpful. I’m glad that I took this course because my husband and I and our son will be moving back to live in Bangkok early next year (2009) as we moved to Australia a couple of years ago to give birth to our son. During my motherhood in Australia I finally got my dream degree in interior design without having to leave my child with anyone else or spend extra money on child care services. And whoever has the same passion for Interior Design, just go for it! I would just like to say that this Interior Design Course has benefited me so much, not only a Diploma degree to complement my career but the knowledge I have learnt from the course enhances my ability to work better in the future.
My husband and I have our own business in Asia (now also in Australia) in the furniture and home décor field, providing and sourcing products. We have been involved with projects in Asia and intend on also providing an Interior Design service. Having a deeper knowledge, more confidence and a greater understanding of Interior Design, will certainly help me to improve the vision of our business. Thank you very much once again for giving me such a great experience."

"When I found the online course run by The Interior Design Institute (IDI) and researched the benefits I realised this was the exact training package I was after, as it ticked all the boxes. I was only able to pursue training in this vocation recently, after working in a completely different industry for many years and since enrolling have not looked back.
I have gained a new appreciation for interiors as well as being far more aware of what elements make up the end result, to ensure you get it right!
I can see myself pursuing a career in interior design for many years to come, as the training has only reinforced my love and passion for this work.
The only regret I have is that I did not start this journey sooner, as I think this course is a perfect fit for almost any student!
I plan to start up my own business and have registered a business name "EVA & EVE", this all thanks to the skills which the course has taught me. The skill ultimately is to sell “me” as a product.
I would recommend this form of training to anyone who relies on flexible learning programs because as a student you have more chance of success when the program is tailored in such a way.
I do hope to one day be the person recommending this course to an aspiring designer, as I can tell them with confidence that IDI is an amazingly competent and reliable online training provider..."

"After having our second baby I felt it was time to do something for myself, I had a strong desire to use my brain again and no desire to go back to my previous career in Administration. Over the years I had expressed my desire to study Interior Design to friends and they encouraged me to enrol in an online course. The Interior Design Institute seemed to offer the most comprehensive course, and the fact that you could do it at your own pace was a huge selling point for me.
Robyn my tutor would propel me forwards into the next Module with her encouraging, informative and constructive responses to Assignments. My confidence with the subject matter gained momentum after completion of each Assignment. There were times when life just wasn't allowing me to spend time on the course, a 2 and 4 year old just don't seem to appreciate the elements of interior design like I do, primarily Space. When I couldn't find the opportunity to study - it was comforting to know that the course, Robyn my tutor and Support would still be there when I was ready to get stuck into it again.
I am so proud of the fact that I completed this course, with great results - without compromising the time I have with my children or husband. As a Mum to young children, to be able to do something for oneself is incredibly empowering and gives us the energy and strength we need to carry on with each day in our busy lives. I also believe that the fact I had enrolled in this course had a large part in me landing a job in the Retail section of an Interior Design company. Now I have completed the course I feel that I have been given a second chance at a career, one that will feed my passion for beautiful interiors. Life is too short to have any regrets.
Thank you to everyone at The Interior Design Institute..."

"I have thoroughly enjoyed completing the Interior Design Institute online course. I was able to work at my own pace and study around my full time work and social life. I have always been interested in interior spaces and how to make them work better and feel more comfortable. This was the perfect course to study from home to improve my abilities and obtain the required skills to create new spaces that are special and functional.
My tutor was available to answer every question I had, quickly and concisely. This made me confident in completing each assignment, which made it fun and also made me look forward to reading the notes after it was marked by my tutor.
I found all 12 modules interesting and have learnt so much not only about the history of interior design, but architecture in Australia and around the world.
I recently met with a client who is requiring my services to design and decorate new buildings for show, both commercial and residential. I am extremely excited and have the confidence from this course to complete the job successfully.
This course has opened my eyes to all the things that make up a space. I am now constantly looking at my surroundings and observing every space I'm in. I would definitely recommend this course to anyone who has a passion for Interior Design as it provides all the information to acquire the skills to make a space unique as well as functional..."

I am so excited to be at the next step, where I can start the ground work to open up my own business. It’s all thanks to The Interior Design Institute!
I am an ex-university student and I had previously started doing a Bachelor of Design. I completed six months out of the three allocated years due to the lack of support that I received and the lack of structure of some of the classes.
I would definitely recommend studying this Diploma course, as it allows you to understand things at your own pace, as well as build your knowledge and range of skills!
Although I am extremely excited to have finished the course so that I can start building my own business, I would have to say that graduating is definitely bitter-sweet! I will miss sitting down with my laptop and reading through modules and assignments, as I really did enjoy every second!
