Venti fascicoli di cm. 33x22, 30 pp. ca. per fascicolo. Il corso era articolato in dieci mesi e venivano distribuite 2 dispense al mese con le varie lezioni, i fogli dattiloscritti e riprodotti in più copie venivano poi legati in dispense destinate agli allievi. Nella prima pag. di ogni fascicolo si elencano i responsabili del corso (direttore, vicedir., revisore), gli insegnanti e la segreteria, di seguito l'indice delle lezioni che segue questa matrice di base in ogni dispensa: Arredamento stanza per stanza, ogni dispensa dedicata ad una camera; riconoscimento degli stili dei mobili, anche in questo caso un periodo preciso per ognuna; lezioni di disegno d'arredamento progressive; i colori e i rivestimenti in un arredamento con descrizione di materiali diversi utilizzati; il legno utilizzato, ogni dispensa avrà il capitolo dedicato ad un legno fra quelli elencati e rappresentati nella prima dispensa; originalità di mobili ed elementi, vari esempi di disposizione di mobili e stili d'arredamento; pavimenti tappeti illuminazione ceramiche, le varie scelte spiegate in ogni puntata a carattere monografico; dialoghi fra allievi e insegnanti (domande e risp.); sviluppo della personalità dell'arredatore, un po' di psicologia o filosofia o morale e metodi per iniziare e applicarsi; organizzazione dello studio e del laboratorio e testi consigliati; l’apparato iconografico eccellente ed estremamente vario con numerose illustrazioni fuori testo a colori o intercalate al testo, in aggiunta a mo’ d’esempio sono applicati in ogni dispensa piccoli pezzi di materiali plastici o legnosi o stoffe. Diamo ora una spiegazione e un sommario il più esaustivi possibile di ciò che contiene ogni dispensa al di fuori delle ill.ni e dei disegni così da dare una spiegazione della complessità del lavoro: 1.a, una tabella in pagina doppia con picc. tasselli in legno, 19 essenze legnose diverse, e le varie caratteristiche del legno stesso. 2.a, un esempio di rivestimento (wunder domus), un tassello di castagno vero per il capitolo sui legni. 3.a, tabelle allegate, questa volta il legno è il noce, altri esempi pratici di rivestimenti. 4.a, depliants e pieghevoli pubblicitari ed esempi di tessuti per pareti "mecarr" e come legno la nansonia. 5.a, studio sull'effetto psicologico dei colori con alcuni esempi applicati, il legno è il mogano, in fine il tessuto per arr.to "flamenco". 6.a, come legno abbiamo il rovere, pagg. pubblic. di telefoni antichi, pubbl. del MOSAICO della Rossiflor, in fine es. di moquette. 7.a, ancora feltrini colorati con spiegazione dell'uso di ogni colore, olmo come es. di legno da studiare, pagg. pubblic. per candele in stile, foto con es. di vetro Madras. 8.a, pieghevole con pubbl. di letti, il faggio, il giallo e i suoi significati in tutte le materie, infine un es. di tappeto a pelo lungo e un es. di divisette in mogano svedese. 9.a, tavola con gli ingombri degli igienici e dei mobili in genere e della fig. umana, come legno l’acero. 10.a, i colori delle vernici e degli riempitivi a secco, il frassino. 11.a, caminetti e pubbl. dei prefabbr.

In totale 522 pp. stampate tutte al recto. Come si vede il corso è estremamente interessante e rappresenta un documento importante, essenziale per la storia dell'arredamento.
