I currently have a degree in Graphic Design, but I’ve been considering starting a Wedding planning buisiness or becoming an Interior Designer. I plan to go back to school either way, but I don’t know anyone in these fields. So I’m wondering how hard it is to get into these fields and be succesfull. I have a little experience doing both and think I’d really enjoy either one.
Thanks in advance!
I hadn’t really thought of commercial or domestic interior design. They would probably both be pretty rewarding. I suppose commercial would be a little better with larger budgets and customers probably have a clearer idea of what they want.

I’m starting my own interior design company, but I don’t want to use my name in the name of the business. Any ideas for something catchy, but not corny?

Neo C asked:


I’m trying to find which interior design web forums (on Yahoo or elsewhere on the web) are popular and generally seen by professional designers and decorators and enthusiasts in the field as the primary forums for such discussions (on decoration, paint, fabrics, furniture, lighting, accessories etc.)
They could be in english or multilingual.

I am trying to decide between and associate of arts degree at a local community college or a bachelor’s from the state college, but my husband would prefer not to move 6 hours away to the state college. Are there any interior designers who could give me info about the type of jobs I could get with an AA in interior design?

I am an Interior Designer who would like to specialize in helping contractors design new homes (presold or spec). I currently work for a design center that offers cabinets, carpet, tile, hardood & slab countertops. I feel that I could be a single source for a contractor to go to for design help (since a lot of them don’t want to deal with this end of it). I could also select paint colors, appliances, lighting & plumbing fixtures.
I would love any ideas on how to market contractors!

I work at an interior design company, and I was wondering what the average salary is for an entry-level administrative assistant in an interior design company.
Im under a two-week trial and at the end of the two weeks I will have to discuss salary, how should I approach it? are there any guidelines? what is the professional way to approach the subject?
I live in New York City if that is of any relevance.
