Your Instructor: Laura Adams
I’ve spent 30+ years inside the textile and interiors industry, where artwork is reviewed, selected, and either brought to market, or quietly passed over.
I’ve worked across buying, product development, and production in both residential and commercial home décor, helping surface designs become real products with real brands.
This training gives you that insider clarity, so you can stop guessing and start creating work that’s ready for the interiors market.
Laura has had the pleasure of working with incredible brands such as:
This is for you if:

- You want shortcuts without understanding the industry
- You’re not open to honest feedback about your work
