Accademia Italiana in Florence, can anyone tell me which is better? Also are there any better schools in Europe for a Masters Degree in Interior Design?

I am looking for a reliable school to enrol in a home interior design course. To study online a few hours a day and to finish the course in 1 to 1 1/2 years.

We plan to start building a house in the next few months and need ideas. I like the meditrainian look with earth tones, wood floors. I can’ seem to find good sites on the latest look that includes lots of pictures so you know what the room looks like. Does sombody out there know any sites or even good magazines for ideas as well as box stores that have good deals on fixtures flooring and so on? This is my first time building a home.

For example: Custom Interior Fabricators, textile fabricators..
Also, what keywords would those in the interior design industry use to find these companies online.
