What You Will Learn

From Design to Build: The Importance of Construction Education in the Design Industry

Strong construction knowledge is essential for today’s kitchen and bath designers. A designer with a basic understanding of construction can design spaces that are not only beautiful, but functional and financially feasible, as well as elevate their role on a job site to facilitate successful projects. Designers aren’t typically taught how homes are built or how their design decisions impact the project timeline and budget. Without a clear understanding of the construction process, beautiful designs often get compromised during the build.

At Built4Design Residential Academy, Elizabeth’s mission is to empower designers through construction education so they can become valuable job site collaborators and strong advocates for their clients.

Educators viewing this webinar will better understand the importance of construction education in preparing students for real-world success and identify opportunities to integrate these concepts into design curricula.
