Another collaboration of academic talks between F-IND and the First City University College. Diploma in Interior Design students had the opportunity to attend this talk shared by Mr. Ed Mun.
It was an honor to have Mr. Ed Mun give us such a great knowledge-sharing session about current issues faced by future designers and how they could impact us.
Mr. Ed Mun shared many aspects and reasons why, as designers, we should say no to free designs. He also shared with us how to explain to clients that design is not free, starting with our scope of work, space planning, design proposal, cost preparations, and material selections.
All students were very focused during the talk, Mr. Ed Mun also shared that, as professionally trained designers, we spent a few years of studying and also spent on workstations. Furthermore, designers often have a lot of workload and less time to rest while completing a project. Hence, it is very important not to give free consultation fees on design.
Token of appreciation were given out by our Dean of the Faculty of Design, Built Environment.
