Brilliant, I can now get my higher education skates on with your useful & informative tips 👍👩💻
Hi. I love your videos. They are packed with great advice and insight into interior design and creativity.
I did want to say one thing regarding your statement about avoiding schools who don't require a portfolio. I am from Canada, and here only the highest schools may require a portfolio. From my own experience, and that shared by others here, Canadian schools are generally more inclusive.. That is, while you may need a certain level of grades, nearly anyone can be admitted into a program of their choosing. I've personally studied in multiple fields, including my current of Interior Design at St. Clair College in Windsor, and I find my professors to be incredible. They bring a lot of experience and knowledge to their courses. I've learned so much, and have begun developing a high level of skills. And again, because of my multiple diplomas and certifications in engineering, I am a good judge of whether they are quality professors; I've had some in the other fields which weren't great at all ; in those courses, I had learnt more from textbooks. I am very happy with the quality of the Interior Design program.
Yes I was meaning in the UK🤗 Sorry if that wasn't clear
Hello Jacqueline, I am an Interior Designer and i am applying for a MA in Interior Architecture. Can you do a video on how to make a portfolio for Post Graduate studies.
I'd love this as well :)
you have a beautiful hair! I went to Chelsea College one of the design schools from London University. They do courses to build a portafolio.
Ah yes I know that college! And thank you so much🙏😊💖
I have never drawn anything of my own thought.. I can replicate the drawings n things i see very accurate.. Is interior architecture for me.
Hi Jameela! Honestly, practice is everything😄 I talk in detail about if you need to be good at drawing in this video: ruclips.net/video/4RcwCH_BBCI/видео.html
I hope it helps you😊
Its pretty fast in somewhere n i wanna 82x lens to read those. Anyway its cool sis. Thankyou❤️❤️
Hey Jacqueline,
Thank you so much for making content like this! It's the only source of information I've found that's been super helpful!
I'm currently working as a Showrooms Advisor at B&Q, studying with NDA part time towards a Diploma in Interior Design and working on my creative skills in my spare time to start getting a portfolio together.
My question is, would I be able to include some designs I've done at work, be it for customers or when I've had a moment to have a play with our design software?
I'm also looking at portfolio building courses, do you think that would be beneficial?
I'm 24 and had no previous plans of going to university when I was younger so having made that decision now, it all seems a little daunting 😂 I wasn't mega academic so I want to give myself the best chance possible of getting accepted.
Love from Wales 🏴😊
Hi Rhiannon! 100% include the designs you've done for clients 💗 That is so great that you have that for your portfolio! 🤗
And I wouldn't waste your coin on those portfolio courses! Scams if you ask me 👀☕🐸 Nothing a YT video and Google can't teach you with that one!
Best of luck with your new career path 🤗💗🍀
@@dantierandbalogh thank you, I'll keep this in mind!
Thank you for posting this! I am just doing a portfolio now and literally had zero idea! Question for you, Ideally in the future I would love to design furniture and lighting, is a degree in interior design the way to go? (Sorry such a big question!) just not sure if I should be looking through more practical avenues or this is covered in interior degrees (I'm in the UK to :)) Thank you!
Thank you😁 Honestly I would say a degree in industrial design OR product design is more suitable for what you're saying 😊 Research into it, but if you're focus is on lighting and future I would day product design would be more helpful. Although I do know people who have left interior design and then gone into lighting design🤷♀️
@@dantierandbalogh Thank you! I looked at Falmouth as well - I see what you mean looks incredible!! Just putting together portfolio now, very exciting!
@@clairemariehaugh thats so great! I wish you the best of luck!
Hi, I became interested in interior, but I've never studied art or design before. To be an interior architect (or to study interior architecture), is it necessary to have great talent in art? (sorry if my english is weird)
You do not have to be amazing as most is done on computer! I am not sure where you are based, but as I said in the video, here in the UK you need *usually* 1 creative subject to get into university- plus a whole portfolio with artwork/design work. Sorry if thats not what you wanted to hear! Although I don't think you need to be amazing, you will definitely need to refine your drawing/ art skills as you will use them alot! :)
Jacqueline
Hello, Jacqueline! I am currently studying Interior architecture and I have a little question. Will it be useful for me to focus on BIM software like Revit for example, in order to work abroad? I am from Alexandria, Egypt. I want to work in Germany or UK or USA. So, is it that useful to learn BIM for Interior architectural design? Or do architects (exterior) focus more on it?
No you're completely correct to focus on BIM! I use BIM (specifically vectorworks) and I believe in Europe we mainly use vectorworks or revit, and in USA they mainly use Revit- of course with other rendering software too! Check out this video I did on the best software for architects & designers: I talk specifically on which programs are good & not so good ruclips.net/video/sjsksFi78QY/видео.html
Also so great to see we are reaching Egypt! 😄 🇪🇬
Jacqueline😊✌
Hey ! I would like to ask u that I am graduated in bachelor of interior design , after that which type of course path available in UK ?? Can u help me !!
Thank you for sharing the information in this video, it is very helpful for me. And this is a really impressive portfolio to me. I'm an 11 grade student in America and my question is did you get scholarship by that portfolio ? Do I have to know about SketchUp and digital apps before going to college?
I answer this question in sundays video! Stay tuned :)
how about get accepted to a master in interior design?
Hey Jacqueline.
Personally your channel has been an eyeopener as to what I really want to do.
I was wondering, if I should study interior architecture can I work as an interior designer. How can I study interior architecture and design together. Do you have any university options
Hi Chimere! Thank you so much for your kind words 💗
1)Yes you can study interior arch and then work as an interior designer!
2) Most universities cover all aspects as part of the degree 🤗
🥰
Hi, I'm from engineering background and I'm planning to do Master's in interior design in uk for the 2022 sept intake and I'm also currently doing a 1year bridge course which is Master's diploma in interior architecture and design. I'm kinda have to finish my application process in the next two weeks, since I'm currently pursuing this course I'm not introduced with the softwares yet but I'm about to complete my first project manually. Will this be enough for the portfolio or do is ut compulsory that I need to know softwares right now to add it in the portfolio... also some tips to prepare portfolio for Master's level please
She said in one of the comments to not worry mucha bout software cuz that was what she had at the time. She said they mostly look for creativity and variations
how can i make a good portofolio for uni when i haven't made any design piece or had no touch with designing things bc I didn't learn how to, in high-school
Spend time on weekends painting, photographing, sewing, drawing etc. Build up creative hobbies that you can show in your portfolio 🤗
What subjects do i need to take for my A'levels in order to pursue interior designing career?
Usual ones like geography, history, maths etc
PLUS at least x1 art or design alevel - like graphics, art, photography etc
Hey sis I was wondering if you need to be top notch at computer programs? I’m not a tech kind of person or more so computer kind of person, but do we need to be good at it?
Hey! Honestly I would say yes 😅😫 Sorry! But you don't have to be amazing- just know the basics to be able to put together a scheme. But if you go to university, they will teach you step by step how to use them. It can be daunting in the beginning (as it looks really hard) but honestly it's ok! If not uni, then youtube has all the tutorials you need, so dont worry!💖
hi I’m in year 9 right now and I have an options evening tomorrow to choose what I wanna do in year 10 and I wanna become an interior designer what subjects should I pick. I have to do all the core subjects but should I pick product design or graphic design?
Just for reference I picked : geography, art, french & graphic design at GCSE level. But in Alevel I took Product design, Art, Maths (dropped maths) & geography🤗
I hope that helps you x
Right now I am doing core maths and Applied science at sixthform so I was wondering will this effect me when applying for uni for not doing an art base alevel or btec
Hello! Honestly, I would say yes (if you want to study interior architecture/ interior design). Have you looked at universities? What are their requirements? As I remember, all the universities I looked at, asked for a creative subject, as well as (of course) the portfolio interview! So if you have no creative work, better get cracking in your spare time!😬 Sorry if that wasnt the answer you were hoping for. Please look at university requirements to get a better understanding☺
Jacqueline
@@dantierandbalogh yhh I did Art gcse so I have alot ig good Art work and most uni say art is preferred but it is alright if my grades and portfolio is good.
Really difficult to go for in person tours now 😕
I know I feel sorry for you guys! Try and see if the uni courses have Instagram pages- I know Falmouth interiors Do. And I think there should be virtual tours! Best of luck 💓
Hello. I’m applying for an interior design programme in the UK and just recently started doing the portfolio. My problem is that I only have moodboards that I did on a website, lots of them, and I can hand draw if I have to. Other than that, I don’t know how to use any software and I don’t have any previous projects to show (just dropped out of business school). How bad do you think my situation is? Can I get accepted with such a simple portfolio. Thank you.
I would say spend the weekends adding things to your folio (sorry if that's bad news). They want to see CREATIVITY & variation! Put in the work & you will get in I'm sure😊 Don't worry too much about software stuff, that's just what I personally had at the time. But yeah make sure you have a variety of things 😊
@@dantierandbalogh thank you so much. I will put in some furniture and perspective sketching as well. And I still want to include a bit of computer stuff so is SketchUp a good choice if I want to start with something simple? Like is it quick to learn if I have a couple months? Or do you have any other suggestions? Thank you.
@@phong5475 Sounds great! Yes I would recommend sketchup as I believe it is free still?! Also there are soooo many sketchup tutorials here on YT so you can binge watch them!
@@dantierandbalogh thank you for sharing
hey I was applying to a bunch of universities I wanted to ask you which universities would you suggest for the interior design course (undergraduation)
I have to say my Alma mater Falmouth University of course 🤗
Hey, can I make my interior design portfolio digital? Like on Powerpoint?
Um good question! I can't remember what they asked for in my interview (it was way back lol). Check the requirements, but if they don't specify, then 100% a PowerPoint is just as good😊🙏🍀
But what if i was an international student and i can't attend open days, what should i do then ?
Some universities have online virtual tours! (Because of the pandemic) x
I really wish to apply for MA in interior design at University of East london . Please please help me about the portfolio i need to increase my chances of being accepted .
I say it all in this video lol😅😅
I want to apply in ual for interior design but I'm kind of worried because my portfolio is more in to fashion and textile project I've made before 😔
No that should be ok! As long as your work showcases your creative skills🤗🤗 Best of luck too🍀🍀
@@dantierandbalogh thanks for motivation 🙏😃
Hi, I love and want to become a interior designer but I don't know how to draw... Please help!!
No worries! I answer the question 'do you need to be able to draw?' in this video
ruclips.net/video/4RcwCH_BBCI/видео.html
I hope it helps you! 🤗🤗
Hi Jacqueline! I moved to london 2 months back. I am currently looking for job as an Interior Designer. I have completed my master's degree from India with an experience of 2 years. I am still struggling in finding my job here. Is it necessary to do course in UK to get a job here?
Hi Divya, thanks for reaching out! And no absolutely not. You will find, working in London that, alot of design practices have employees from all over the world (all with different qualifications)😊.
But 2 months ONLY! Girl you'll be fine😁 Although it seems like a lifetime when you're looking for a job, it really isn't long. An ideal time frame would be 4-8 months (sorry to say!). I know it can feel like nothing is coming and you're trying so hard, but just keep applying 100 times a day and you will get there 🥳 No doubt you have an amazing portfolio already, so all I can say is give some credit to yourself, and take the pressure off of yourself. I know you are under the pressure of getting a work visa asap (as my friend from India experienced), but remember that good things take time💗 Keep going & the right job will come your way🙏 Frame recruitment, dezeen jobs, Haus careers, major players, sketch recruitment, mustard jobs, linkedin jobs & indeed are ALL good websites for applying (specifically tailored to ID & archi jobs)🍀
hello, I just want to ask if being and interior designer allow you to have creative freedom ?
Wow that’s such a great question! I would say it’s different in each place you work. Obviously for me I can do what I want, as I own my design studio (of course following the design brief & client spec). But on the whole I would say yes!
Jacqueline 😊
@@dantierandbalogh Thank you,Have a great day
I have no background in design but I'm willing to put in the work to create a portfolio and join masters, can you suggest universities that offer MFA courses in interior design?
Honestly there are so many to choose from, so I would be lying if I said I knew which ones are the best! I'm so sorry, but just do some research online and I'm sure it will give you a clear answer💗 Wishing you all the best for your studies🍀🙏
Hello varier! I would like to know if you were able to apply.. as i do not have any background in design.. I studied agriculture in university.. do I stand a chance?
I'm an architectural student in India, do I need a master's degree in interior design to work in Europe other than the UK. I just want to know do they need a license in other countries of Europe too?
No you should be fine with a degree in architecture ☺️ It all depends on your portfolio though & where you are applying!
Was this portfolio of A level in uk?
And which A leve was it?
Yes it was. I can't remember if I say in this vid or another one but my a levels were : geography, art & product design
hyy , could you suggest a few good interior design uni in Canada?
Thanks for your comment, but in all honesty I’m not sure about schools in North America! Sorry! Best of luck😊🍀🍀
I found this 3d design app called restyler, and I was wondering if designs made on that would be professional enough to put on a portfolio along with other art
Hi! I'm really sorry I haven't heard of it... But anything 3D is worth showing!
I'm a moroccan student , can I study interior design or architecture there ?
In the UK? Im not sure. I believe international students pay to study in the UK.
Do we have to study business skills in order to start a an interior design business ?
Hi I will probably do a video on this sometime, but I didn't. I graduated in interior architecture & design and then afterwards I took separate business courses (not part of uni)- if that makes sense 😅
@@dantierandbalogh Aww that's so good, thanks for replying and by the way what University did u study Interior architecture at ? Bc actually i want to study Interior architecture in the UK as well, but I just wanna make sure about my choices if that makes sense
@@inesart6776 sure I went to Falmouth university 🤗

Hi there! First off, good luck with your studies! Laszlo actually went here for his BA in Illustration and said it was very good! I hope that helps you :) Plymouth is a nice city but also by the beach (which of course makes it alot nicer!). Only downside is that after university, most jobs are in London!
So funny. CAD isn't enough now. Employers want specifically BIM and Revvit.
I know😢

Hey u have used God of hindu(india)
God Shiva and Parvati in your drawing.
Do you really know about them?
Beneath buddha..
Well spotted! Yes I did draw Parvati & Lord Shiva. The artwork was about different buildings and the gods that are worshipped (or associated) with said building. I am very fascinated with Indian culture & Hinduism. Please tell me more if you would like to, as I certainly do not know all🙏🌺
