Calling all interior designers

Thursday, 23 February 2006 12:00 AM

Budding interior designers will be given the chance to win a scholarship to hone their skills at a forthcoming property show.

The Evening Standard Homes & Property Live has teamed up with art and design academy JJAADA to offer an interior design scholarship worth £15,000.

The winner will learn from experts about art and design, including drawing, colour, form and texture.

They will also learn how to use a variety of materials and fabrics with lighting, furniture and dressings to create and enhance space.

JJAADA will also be offering personal interior design clinics at the show, giving all visitors the benefit of a free 15-minute consultation.

Space saving ideas, modular living, lighting, colour and interior trends - as well as adding value to your property - will be among the topics covered in the consultations.

Other show features include a home security clinic, sponsored by ADT, and a 'Future of London' zone, showcasing developments in London scheduled for the next five years.

Janice Morley, founding editor of Homes & Property magazine said: "The show is ideal for property buyers across the spectrum, whether you are a first-time buyers, investors, budding interior designer, or simply just looking for some advice on where to go next, the show offer an exclusive opportunity to gain all of this information and more."
