A Fresh Perspective???????
When architect and designer begin with compatible philosophies and proceed with mutual respect, the result is indeed total: total design, total harmony, and total unity.

Hey Here’s Some Positive P.R…..For Once.
Thanks to Claire Golan for trying to illuminate the difference between an interior decorator and an interior designer. See IIDA and ASID it’s not that difficult.

Blah blah de blah blah wah wah
Wow hate to break the news but we have been dealing with this issue long before those with a flair for color and a penchant for misguided jingoism figured out that it is easier to de-professionalize interior design than it is to actually improve it.

R.I.D. A.S.A.P.
Just two examples of the pro-regulation proponents acquiescing on the title of interior design. From 2009; Oklahoma – SB 592, a bill amending the Interior Design Act, changed the title of licensees under the Act from “interior designer” to “registered interior designer” and was signed into law May 13. Texas – HB 1484, a bill […]
