Decorating Your Home Step by Step
A course by Tessa Muga , Interior Designer

Learn how to decorate your home or any other space with the Somos Nido layering system to truly reflect those who live there
We've been told that everyone should have a large dining room for special dinners and meetings. But, if that's not your priority and you'd never use it, expand the room, make an office, and make the most of your space!
Interior designer Tessa Muga's creative process is born from the needs of her clients, so in this online course, she teaches you how to decorate an entire room or flat, layer by layer, through her organized work process that you can adapt to your dream home.
