Interior Design
Nature of the Work
- Interior designers plan the space and furnish the interiors of private homes, public buildings, and business or institutional facilities. They also plan the interiors when existing structures are renovated. Most interior designers specialize. With a client's tastes, needs, and budget in mind, interior designers prepare drawings and specifications for non-load bearing interior construction, furnishings, lighting, and finishes. Using computers to plan layouts, Interior designers must design space to conform to Federal, State and local laws, including building codes, while designs for public areas must meet accessibility standards for the disabled and elderly.
Training
- Interior design is the only design field subject to government regulation. Passing the National Council for Interior Design Qualification examination is required for licensure. To take the exam, one must complete at least 2 years of postsecondary education in design, at least 2 years of practical work experience in the field, plus additional related education or experience to total at least 6 years of combined education and experience in design.
