Places where you can find Work
Not everyone that is interested in interior design will want to run their own business. Some would prefer to express their creativity while working for someone else. There are many places that you could work and still be an interior designer. Ive made a list of places and jobs that you could do if starting your own business is just not right for you right now.
Architectural Firm, you can read and create blueprints, draw up sample pieces, and create models.
Design center Showroom: In this job, you get to design and arrange the items on the showroom floor. This is often in furniture stores, department store windows etc. it can be a lot of fun.
Retail Furniture Store: You can set up the floor area, mark up the material, and learn the basics of mix and match furniture. (also called eclectic)
Many of these jobs are great if you are a self learner. They will give you a great deal of experience in sales, design, and coordinating fabrics and colors. It is a great way to get the basics before starting your own business.
By now you will know if a career in Interior Design is right for you. I hope that you will enjoy your new career, and that you got all of the tips that you need to make the right choice for you.
