Space Planning Masterclass for Your Home

Unlock the full potential of your home, one square metre at a time.

Imagine walking into a room and knowing exactly how to make it work for your Home, — where every piece fits, every corner has purpose, and the space simply feels right.

That’s exactly what you’ll learn in Space Planning Masterclass for Your Home, a hands-on, one-day immersive masterclass led by internationally acclaimed interior design expert Sharon Conneely-Donaldson, from Full Circle Interior Design.

Time and time again, poor layouts, function, flow and incorrect sized furnture are the biggest mistakes in interior design.

Set in a beautiful, relaxing location, this immersive day is designed to give you the knowledge, confidence, and creativity to transform any space — whether you’re starting fresh in a new build, adapting to a smaller home, or simply looking to make your rooms more functional and inviting.

The masterclass is suitable for beginners or refreshers. Participants from previous workshops or courses are welcome to attend as a refresher and to work on additional information/activities not covered previously. All the work is done manually. However, a laptop is an optional tool you may bring along to source images and create moodboards.

Who it is perfect for:

  • Homeowners with new builds who want to maximise every inch of space & make their budget work while creating inviting, functional rooms with great flow.
  • Downsizers who want to adapt their existing furniture to fit a smaller home without sacrificing style, comfort or look.
  • Anyone such as those with major renovation plans who wants a solid foundation in the essential principles of space planning and interior layout.

 

Key Takeaways from the day:

  • Understanding of scales 1:50 & 1:100.
  • Ability to read CAD floor plans from living rooms, dining rooms, bedrooms, kitchens
  • Maximise the space whether it is a challenging small new build or larger spaces.
  • Draw floor plans according to industry guidelines measurements.
  • Receive a comprehensive list of suppliers for flooring, furniture, textiles, lighting, art & accessories

  • Learn the importance of layout, flow, lighting & colour.

  • Understand Moodboards & create one of your choice.
  • 1:1 feedback on your work.
  • Receive a detailed set of reference notes.

 

By the end of the masterclass, you’ll have the confidence and skills to tackle your own space planning projects with ease and creativity. Bring along whatever floor plans, measurements and photos of your home for  1:1 consultations with Sharon.

What a previous participant had to say:

‘Sharon’s warm and personable approach made the workshop very enjoyable.  She created a calm atmosphere and patiently explained the subject of drawing to scale and reading floor plans which was all interesting and useful. Practical advice was given and slides with detailed information from the workshop were made available for reference. I would highly recommend a workshop with Sharon.’
