If you are looking to get into a good internship, Decore is where it's at. Before I came I had trouble understanding what made a good portfolio, how to become unique in the sea of similar portfolios, and what the industry was actually looking for. I was also not exactly happy with the level of my work as well. However, at Decore, Yosef and Joon broke down what our portfolio is designed to do and the psychology behind the recruiters reading it. They also gave me amazing insider information on what the current market is looking for. The education I got here helped me improve my digital rendering capabilities and drawing skills as well. This helped me set up an amazing portfolio that got many responses from internships when I started applying. Now I'm interning at a Fortune 100 company under a top design team in the consumer electronics industry. I can honestly say I wouldn't have made it here and thriving without their help.

As a product design student specializing in CMF design, I was struggling to build a portfolio that stood out from my classmates, all while showcasing my skills and talents. Yosef and Joon really helped guide me to create a portfolio that I was extremely proud of, for a new and competitive industry. Ive gained so many practical skillsets that are essential to have in order to work in the industry but that aren't focused on in the curriculum of even the top design schools. Not only did I make something Im proud to show, but I've developed the confidence to start working in the industry. Thank you Joon and Yosef!

This is definitely the best place ever to prepare for the internship! As a 3rd year student at Artcenter, I missed lots of important attributes that are required for applying for the internships. After I learned a variety of skills and organizing my works, I got offered by many design companies. DECORE is teaching you what you haven't learned but what you have to know. The teachers are not only just teaching the skills, but coaching for all process of applying for an internship, from baby step to mastering the design.

If you are looking for a sketch/design class to take, this is the place! The instructors are very knowledgeable and can really help you elevate your drawing skills. I started the class not knowing much about sketching, but I have improved significantly with the help of the sketching class and instructors. Highly recommended!
