We spend over 90% of our lives indoors. High quality indoor environments created by interior design professionals contribute to health, safety, and welfare in homes as well offices, hospitals, schools, hotels, stores, museums, restaurants, and other places of business. As an interior designer, you work in independent design firms, architectural offices, and retail establishments. You may also work as a manufacturer’s representative, facility planner, or corporate designer.

As an interior design graduate, you have opportunities in both residential and commercial design. Your area of specialization might be health care, fast-food restaurant, time-share condominium, or retirement home facilities. All are rapidly growing businesses that demand professional designers with an understanding of user needs.

As a 21 st century interior designer, you are not limited to choosing furniture and accessories. You create attractive and functional environments that set the stage for productive work or relaxing moments. You interact with people, enjoy creative activity, and set your own schedule.
