is the money better for interior design? i understand the differences between the two: designer must be licensed, can change structures, etc., but which is a more lucrative career path?
Your Interior Design Degree is the one that will make you more money, anyone can be a decorator, teachers and professionals will tell you that a decorator is someone with good taste, a designer is better educated and can do more.
It depends what you are interested in. If you like learning about different types of architecture and more about the structure of buildings and the styles that were used during a certain time period, then the interior design would be more for you. If your interests lie more in the beautification of buildings and rooms, color schemes, furniture styles, window treatment options, lighting options (task vs. mood), home decor etc. then interior decorating may be what you should be taking classes in. Good luck in whatever path you decide on!
