This class is a must for anyone involved in the cosmopolitan aspects of architecture and interior design.”

Carol Farkas, Vero Beach
“Jean possesses an astounding gift for public speaking and an encyclopedic knowledge of all things relevant to the visual poetry that is European architecture/décor, including furnishings, fabrics and landscape considerations. Additionally, I learned more from Mr. Renoux about European history than I ever did from any of my college professors!”
Marguerite Mueller, Burlington, Ontario

Kim Merbeek
“Although I've had courses in art, architecture, history, and design, they never came alive and blended together like they did in this presentation. This is the only way design should be presented! Everything I had ever read or learned previously now has meaning. I can truly understand and appreciate the purpose and intent of interior design and architecture. This course makes me want to be a better designer.”
Sherry Ruggieri, ASID, Turnersville, New Jersey
Marvelous personality and sense of humor. Presentation techniques are excellent. Shares a wealth of information.”
