• Interior Design & Politics

  In case you missed ASID’s latest take on the state of the profession in regard to government regulation; http://www.nxtbook.com/nxtbooks/id/20200102/index.php?startid=34 We all have more important things to worry about right now….but when we come out of this tunnel I will continue to voice an independent perspective on the state of the “interior design” profession. Stay well…

• Time for Interior Design to Split

  For those of you who still visit this site, or receive notifications, you will note that PROFESSIONALINTERIORDESIGNER has been quiet for the past year.  Several reasons;  First, I have not had time.  Second, not much has been happening on the Interior Design identity front-good or bad.  Third, I am tired of posting the same old…

• HOW DO WE ADVOCATE FOR THE PROFESSION OF “INTERIOR DESIGN”?

  Kudos to Emily Kluczynski, IIDA’s Director of Advocacy, Public Policy, and Legislative Affairs for putting this presentation together.

• INTERIOR DESIGNER vs. INTERIOR DESIGNER- WHAT’S THE DIFFERENCE?

  image from http://idc-oregon.org/ Can Interior Designers ever distinguish themselves from Interior Designers in order to advance the profession via government regulation?

• NOTE TO SELF

  It’s been awhile since PROFESSIONALINTERIORDESIGNER added anything positive to the effort to validate the profession of interior design-which is the purpose of this blog.  Lest I be labeled a chronic whiner I woke up this morning and said to my self- Self….Self…..Wake Up….It’s time to stop posting obtusely cynical observations with no real merit- You…

• Speaking of Politics

  Of the 23 +/- states with some form of title or practice legislation in place Colorado is a bit unique in that they have permitting legislation in place.
