Are you:
Nervous about getting your home design right?
Overwhelmed by the amount of choices available or stuck creatively?
Worried you're going to waste money on a design you don't like?
It's time to create a clear, cohesive design plan that will get you your dream home, within budget!
Which course sould I start with?
If you're renovating a house or about to purchase a renovation that requires structural changes (i.e a kitchen extension, loft conversion, remodel or you're adding/removing walls) and you want to understand budgeting and timelines – we recommend working on the How to Renovate a House Online Course. If you're keen to deep dive into getting your design right, Home Design Lab will help you form a plan, invest in all the right pieces, and avoid rookie mistakes that can cause a mish-mash of styles. You’ll get your property finished beautifully in a way that will add value to your house (and life).
If you’re moving into a new home that doesn’t need structural work or if you want to give your existing home a facelift, it’s Home Design Lab you need.
When does the program start?
Enrolment begins the same day you enrol! You get instant access after you pay the one-time fee. All of my online courses are designed to be completely self paced which means that you can work through at a pace that suits you and your project. You can start, stop, pause and resume as and when your time and home/project require it.
Will you be on hand to answer any questions if I get stuck?
No, but I design each online course very carefully to ensure that you won't need to ask questions. I pour a huge amount of time and resources into each online course to make sure that they deliver results for you. If you follow each lesson carefully, implement the exercises in the order I’ve set out, give yourself time to reflect, dream and visualise and you'll find that you will achieve the results you didn’t think was possible.
Can I get a refund if this isn’t for me?
Absolutely. If you don’t feel that your home design planning has become more structured, less stressful and more inspired within 30 days of you following exercises in this course we will refund the entire cost of the course directly to your chosen payment method. I’m confident you’ll love it and get huge value. You need to put the work in though. This course won’t work its magic unless you turn up to it. It’s so much fun, it’ll be a breeze to follow.
I've taken your How to Renovate course, is there overlap?
There is very minimal overlap between the two courses – so don't worry on that front. Home Design Lab will help you deep dive in interior design to make sure you get a stunning finish on your renovation. It’s been amazing to see so many of my students from the How to Renovate a House Online Course go on to complete this program too. I'm delighted because it means that so many of you really care about getting your home design right. It's packed with new and exclusive content and tools you're going to get a lot of value from, not featured in How to Renovate a House.
How long will it take me?
It completely depends on how big your home is, how complex the room is (i.e kitchens and bathrooms take longer to design than bedrooms and living rooms) and how much experience you’ve had in design before. I’ve designed the modules to fit in with a busy schedule, so if you’re juggling a family, full time job and house project, the structure I show you will actually save you time by keeping you focused. I recommend working on one room for your first run through the course, to get a feel for the approach I set out and the tools and information. For an average sized room, it would probably take me 3 hours per module (i.e 12 hours to design each room using the exercises outlines) – it’s packed with value
Will there be a Facebook group?
Yes, but not yet! We will be opening a private Facebook community to connect Home Design Lab students in preceding months, subject to demand. We launched our Reno Club alongside our best selling How to Renovate a House Online Course in August 2020 and it opened our eyes to just how important it is to have community alongside learning. All founding members and alumni will be emailed an (optional) invitation to join the private Facebook group when it’s set up.
Can I get my work reviewed by a designer?
What makes this program different, is that you can choose (at any time) to submit your work to an interior designer for a 1 hour review. You can choose either myself or my trusted partner Deborah Plant, who specialises in renovations and kitchen extensions to review your plans for a small fee. We will offer you an honest opinion, suggest enhancements tailored to your home and budget, give you suggestions to push your design one step further, and recommend suppliers. The cost will be an additional £150 per session, made payable directly to the designer you work with prior to your call. To set this up, please email hello@fifimcgee.com with your Home Design Lab order number and ensure you have completed the modules to make the most of the call. You will be required to complete a pre-call questionnaire so that the designer is fully informed of your space, needs and any questions you want to cover on the call.
What if I’m not ready when the course starts?
No problem! When you sign up for Home Design Lab you get lifetime access to the course materials. That means you can start on any day you like and work at your own pace.
Why don’t I just hire an interior designer?
This course is for people who believe that they can do the designs themselves but need that extra bit of structure, accountability and know-how.
Interior designers are incredibly skilled / well trained so please be aware that this course doesn’t profess to make you or your home ‘interior designer’ level, but it does teach you some of the concepts and skills we practice as professionals so that you can start your home design journey in the right way. I also show you some of my client work which was a real hit with our pilot students!
I’m not based in the UK. Will this course still apply to me?
I produced this online course with UK homes and suppliers in mind, however, the process I share is universal and can be applied to your home no matter where you’re based. We’ve had students from Belgium and the USA take this course achieving fantastic results.
Can't I just collate design help from various sources?
If you're thinking you might be better off just continuing to muddle through and using Pinterest and online articles to help you get by, then you could continue down this path. But remember the videos, exercises and structure Home Design Lab gives you, you won't be able to access anywhere else online. I show you industry practices and an insiders view on how to formulate your design plans that free content won't scratch the surface on. I also show you my own work and approach as a designer which isn’t available anywhere else online.
