Wellbeing should be on everyone's radar at this point in time. How can interior designers and architects respond to the wellbeing needs of their clients, in both commercial spaces and private homes?

The Design for Wellbeing online training course combines a large amount of wellbeing knowledge in one easily accessible place.

Students can choose between the on-demand course or the hybrid one, allowing them to have the best learning experience suited to their needs.

The course consists of 54 online lessons and a final exam, covering topics such as the philosophy of wellbeing, comfort and performance.

Also taught during the course are aesthetic and physical design issues, such as colours, textures, spatial volumes, elegance, thermal comfort, air toxicity issues and lighting.

Part five of the course looks at interior spaces and value. How do you convert the value of an interior space into a financial number?

Your tutor is industry expert Elina Grigoriou, a London-based interior designer and sustainability and wellbeing expert with 18 years of industry experience.

You also have the opportunity to ask Elina Grigoriou questions concerning projects you are currently working on in your practice, as well as the chance to attend an in-person gathering in London, where you can meet fellow students, share insights and discuss your work.

Please visit the Grigoriou Education website for the detailed curriculum, enrolment and payment options.
