Interior design courses - any recommendations?

[Alva]

I'd love to find a short course I can do by distance learning. Am based in London so could do occasional bricks-and-mortar sessions, childcare permitting... Does anyone know anything about the KLC/Homes and Gardens course, or any others out there?

Bit about London badly worded - just meant if courses included bricks-and-mortar sessions, I could only attend if they were in London!

I think you really need to consider whether you want interior design or interior decoration as a lot of the KLC and other courses are decoration only. If you want to do design then this may narrow down your options slightly to begin with.

I think a design element would be useful...
