Interior Design students study wall treatments

Imago Dei Austin is proving to be a valued resource for Interior Design students at the Art Institute of Austin campus.

Luis Angulo, General Manager and Artist for Imago Dei Austin, is scheduled for another workshop on wall treatments. Topics include custom wall finishes, history, quality and techniques of faux finishing and decorative painting. In the process, students will gain understanding of hiring and working with vendors in the industry—what to expect, how to check for quality and exploring “green” options. The multimedia presentation including sample boards of several different textures including paints and glazes, gold leaf and metallic finishes, plasters and clays, and stencils. Angulo will also stress relevance of wall treatments for today’s interior design directions.

Last year the Austin branch joined the Texas Chapter of ASID to be active in the local design community. Angulo is an alumnus of the Art Institute Miami, BFA in Visual Arts, and the University of Hartford in Connecticut for Masters degree.
