- Interior designers are being lied to by the industry bodies they think they can trust. In today’s post I’ll be exposing one of the biggest industry lies that has been silently creeping into the profession causing havoc, danger and confusion amongst designers and clients alike. This is a must-see episode for anyone planning to hire an interior designer or for interior designers, students and aspiring designers.
This post is accompanied by an article which goes into greater detail, which you can read here: www.idbs.onlin...
In the article you can also download an infographic that highlights the main differences between an interior architect and an interior designer. Please note that the main difference is not necessarily the work they do but in the training they have received, which will usually include registration with an architect’s board.

There is so much discussion around all these terms in Australia at the moment. We are going through loads of changes. I've recently dropped from studying Interior Architecture to Interior design because of the reasons you have explained. I once asked a very highly reputable interior design firm what qualifications they look for in their staff and he responded we won't hire that doesn't have an interior architecture degree. Mind-blowing!
Exactly, it's nuts. Basically, they're saying they're hiring architects to do an interior designer's job, but these are separate professions. (I know because I do both and am trained in both!) It doesn't take an architect to be an interior designer. In fact, the best interior designers I've seen is the opposite. I always say trust your heart and follow your passion; it will never steer you wrong, and everyone's path is their own. Good luck and stay in touch!
Than you for clarifying this. It can get so confusing.
I'm glad it helped. I agree, it really is confusing, especially when the people you think you can trust are the ones who aren't being honest about it! I hope you're doing well Carrie!
Also Sophie Paterson is an amazing example of someone without a degree but who now has a large and very successful design business.
That's right! She's actually one of my favourite interior designers of all time and she's absolutely lovely too!
@@interiordesignschoolSame here! I absolutely love her style and her loveliness is likely a big reason for her success!
@@annaoslo8650 I don't get a lot of time to watch tv etc. but when I do, I love watching her UA-cam channel!
