Muy buen curso de introducción y fundamentos del mundo del diseño de interiores
Los contenidos se presentan en una secuencia organizada y clara. Es muy accesible la exposición de la docente y son útiles los recursos adicionales que ha añadido.
This course might be helpful if only it's the very first time you hear about interior design. Super basic.
Conteúdo valioso, obrigado Gab.
Kurs nie przetłumaczony w całości, z wieloma błędami translacyjnymi. Mało wiedzy, mało merytoryki, mało kontentu. Nie polecam.
