In Their Own Words

YunJun_DID 300by300

During my 6-month tenure, I served as a Junior Interior Designer, engaging in diverse projects encompassing residential, commercial, and exhibition design. I was able to hone my soft skills there, including effective communication with clients and contractors, both in-person and via email. I also gained insights into site management and even acquired some foundational project management skills. These experiences were invaluable and couldn't have been taught in a classroom setting.
