Unit of competency
Modification History
Release 1. Supersedes and is equivalent to MSFID5015 Decorate interiors for restoration projects.
Application
This unit describes the skills and knowledge required to analyse the project brief, research options and develop interior decoration solutions for restoration projects that meet the conservation and heritage requirements of the building style and era.
This unit applies to interior decorators. They analyse and compare information from a wide range of different sources to develop and plan decoration solutions.
Licensing, legislative or certification requirements may apply to this unit and relevant state/territory and local government agencies should be consulted to determine any necessary certification or licensing for undertaking interior decoration and design work. Access to construction sites requires certification of general induction training specified by the National Code of Practice for Induction for Construction Work (ASCC 2007).

Elements and Performance Criteria
Elements |
Performance Criteria |
Elements describe the essential outcomes. |
Performance criteria describe the performance needed to demonstrate achievement of the element. |
1. Analyse the project brief |
1.1 Evaluate project specifications, parameters and constraints, and confirm with client 1.2 Select work resources based on project needs 1.3 Identify key project stakeholders and establish required communication protocols |
2. Research decoration requirements |
2.1 Conduct site analysis to assess the requirements of the spaces requiring decoration 2.3 Identify style, era, theme and features of the site 2.4 Identify issues relating to the conservation and heritage environment and determine their implications for the project 2.5 Identify and analyse impacting environmental issues 2.6 Identify and research sources to inform the decoration process based on analysis 2.7 Clearly document research outcomes 2.8 Develop a project plan that identifies key steps and responsibilities |
3. Generate decoration solution |
3.1 Assess regulatory requirements relating to decoration to determine compliance 3.2 Generate decoration concepts and assess against restoration requirements and the restoration style and era 3.3 Examine environmental aspects of decoration solution and identify areas for improved sustainability and incorporate where possible within the parameters of the brief 3.4 Develop and clearly define conceptual approach 3.5 Develop preliminary drawings with decoration treatment inclusions and positioning 3.6 Discuss preliminary concept ideas with client and receive and analyse feedback 3.7 Modify concept according to feedback and seek client agreement |
4. Prepare client presentation |
4.1 Present concept to client in a format and level of detail suited to the client and scope of the project 4.2 Clearly articulate and present rationale for the chosen solution to the client 4.3 Seek and analyse client feedback and response to determine success in achieving client satisfaction 4.4 Evaluate work through feedback and own reflection, and identify potential improvements for use in future projects |
