NS Interiors introduces Interior Design courses focussing on Feng Shui as a system unique to Interior Design and Architecture!

Attend the upcoming one day class at Parklex Prodema showroom in Clerkenwell on Friday 8th November!

As a leading expert in Feng Shui for over 32 years and an award winning interior designer, Nicholas Sunderland will teach the fundamentals of The Design School Feng Shui without its complexity, myths, superstition, and mystery to enable designers to incorporate it into their own particular style and methods.

Unlike traditional Feng Shui courses – which usually take weeks, even years – the course is filtered into a system that is easy to understand and uniquely focused on Interior Designers and Architects.

On 9th October, Gaggenau hosted a highly successful women’s networking evening alongside Athena Stonecare where attendance far exceeded expectations. The event provided a fantastic opportunity for women from construction and design industry to come together, share experiences and build connections. It was inspiring to see attendees build new connections and catch up with existing contacts creating a mix of opportunities and enhanced networking. A highlight of the event was series of speeches given by:
– Rachel Sargeant, Head of Projects, Gaggenau
– Sharon Wallis, Managing Director, Poggenpohl
– Beverley Walker, Head of Sales and Operations, Houseworks London
– Becca Cranfield Director, Athena Stonecare

Each one of them shared their personal stories on how they managed to thrive in male dominated industries and offered powerful insight on leadership and overcoming unique challenges women face in their respective fields. Their insights on leadership and navigating challenges were both empowering and motivational.

“My initial plan was to organise event dedicated to honouring and promoting Women in Construction and Design Industry. The goal was to create a platform where women in these fields could connect, establish valuable connections and network. This idea stemmed from the fact that women currently only represent 14% of the construction industry. Reflecting on my own past as a female apprentice in a time when it was rare to see women on construction sites, I realised that there is a lack of substantial support for women in this industry.” – Rachel Sargeant

Rachel and Becca from Athena Stonecare (an expert in networking) together with the Gaggenau team planned an evening event in hope of generating some interest. The response was overwhelming with the event reaching full capacity just days after invitations were sent.
