Interior Designers: The Next Generation at Glasswells

Abbi Travers, Soft Furnishings Sales Advisor

Meet Abbi Travers: The Next Generation of Interior Designers at Glasswells

Abbi joined Glasswells’ soft furnishings department in May 2021 after completing her Fashion and Textiles course at West Suffolk College with a Distinction. With a love for Interior Design, she has chosen to further her studies alongside her role as a sales advisor and start a course to become an Interior Designer.

Abbi explained “It was my creative passion and flare for design from a young age that made me fall in love with interior design. From designing my own fabrics to upholstering my own furniture, I have always strived to become a designer and I am thankful to Glasswells for sponsoring me in this and for their support”.

Paul Glasswells, Managing Director says “Glasswells’ mission is to develop and progress the career of young people in retail with in-depth training. This provides them the invaluable knowledge and experience to progress within the company, as well as the industry, and we are pleased to be able to support Abbi through her course at the Interior Design Institute.”

Interior Design at Glasswells

 

Abbi’s course consists of 12 comprehensive modules and 12 corresponding assignments and will last approximately a year, enabling her to progress her Interior Design career at Glasswells. She will be able to translate her great knowledge to customers in our Design Centre, as well as coordinate fabrics and textures with furniture, flooring and furnishings to create a seamless finish.

The first module of the course consists of learning the basics of Interior Design, creating mood boards and learning how to observe, evaluate and form opinions of different design styles by analysing interior spaces. Abbi will develop her ‘designer’s eye’ and understand how to apply her knowledge to create inspirational designs for home and work environments.
