What You'll Actually Learn
Design Fundamentals
We start with color theory, spatial planning, and material selection. You'll work with different fabrics, florals, and lighting setups—getting comfortable with what works in various venue types. About six weeks of foundational work before moving forward.
Client Communication
Learning to listen is half the job. We cover consultation techniques, budget discussions, and how to guide clients toward realistic visions. You'll practice these conversations with role-play scenarios that mirror actual client meetings.
Project Execution
The final months focus on bringing designs to life. You'll assist with real events, managing timelines and coordinating with vendors. This hands-on phase shows you what actually happens between concept sketches and finished celebrations.
Who's Teaching This
Both instructors have spent years working directly with clients across Baku. They're bringing their actual project experience—not just theory—into the classroom sessions scheduled for late 2025.

Design Lead
Rutger's been designing event spaces since 2017, working primarily with corporate celebrations and large-scale weddings. He focuses on technical aspects—lighting design, structural elements, and venue transformation techniques that students can apply immediately.
