SUMMARY:WORKSHOP - How Do Specifiers Select Furniture and Furnishings for Major Projects?
DESCRIPTION:  \nBUY TICKETS HERE \nIn this workshop learn how furniture and furnishing products are identified\, selected and specified in an architectural and interior design project. \nWe’ll work through each of the stages that architects and specifiers use to make their choices. Starting at the design development stage within an architect’s office and the point at which the project’s compliance requirements are considered\, through to how 3D models are sourced to when the client signs off and the project is real. We’ll compare the processes for commercial projects and domestic retailing and provide designers and manufacturers with a pathway to enter this specifier process. A must for any business looking to diversify access to its product range. \nDATE: 10 October 2018\nTIME: 9.30am – 12.30pm followed by Networking Lunch\nWHERE: Holmesglen Institute\, Building 5\, Batesford Road\, Chadstone\, Victoria\nCOST: $189.00 \nPRESENTER:\nJonathan Muller Barch. is a graduate of architecture\, designer and experienced visualiser.
