I started The Little Design Corner in 2014 as a blog while working in corporate change management. Within months people were contacting me about interior design projects and within a year I'd left my corporate career to run my own residential design studio.

I spent six years building a busy studio and eventually I was fully booked and had a decision to make. Should I take on more staff and projects or find another way to grow?

I chose the second option.

Drawing on my background in education, I created my first SketchUp course back in 2019. It took off straight away and I realised how much designers needed to learn beyond what they'd been taught at design school.

That course grew into the business you see today, with SketchUp training, professional templates and practical business courses to help designers build their skills and run successful studios.
