Begin your journey into the world of design by learning basic tools and developing creative skills.

The Global Design Junior Summer Course introduces you to design in a creative and playful way, helping you discover your passion for one of its disciplines: fashion, graphic, product, or interior design.

It also offers insight into potential career paths by exploring the many practical applications within each field.

The course follows a hands-on approach, based on the idea that a design professional learns by designing. Over an intensive week, you’ll develop your own creative skills and gain a cross-disciplinary vision, guided throughout the process by a team of dedicated instructors.

 
 

Information to decide

A unique opportunity to discover the world of design through the development of fashion, product, interior, and graphic projects.

The program is divided into four main modules: Fashion Design, Product Design, Graphic Design, and Interior Design.

The final step is to choose the design discipline that best fits your needs, interests, and expectations. Classes are taught in English by a team of instructors who are professional designers specialized in their respective fields.

If you’re between 15 and 18 years old and are curious about the world of design, this course is for you.

The goal of this course is to develop your creative skills while enjoying a unique, global experience that spans all design disciplines. You’ll learn while having fun in the best creative environment and make the most of your summer holidays.

You’ll gain insight into a discipline that you may wish to pursue as a professional path.

The key value of this program lies in understanding all design disciplines from start to finish — learning their techniques, tools, and how they are applied to real brands and clients.

You’ll also experience firsthand what daily life is like at a creative school such as IED Kunsthal: its methodology, extracurricular activities, and close connection with real-world projects.
