      @cyberpunklain Рік тому +16

      its def different for east asian cultures because of the traditional floor centric architecture. u eat on the floor, u sleep on the floor, etc. which provides even more reasoning to not wearing shoes inside.

    • @Hihize-rose
      @Hihize-rose Рік тому +2

      Just start taking classes online that teach interior design or watch on UA-cam and try learning which goes where and how to make different colors blend in together. Which furnitures are going to set in the room? What style are you going for modern or simple modern or contemporary modern or cozy or nature and many more ( adjust to your style of liking). Knowing color theory is important. The Principles of Elements and Design is very important are you going to add 3d stuff in your room to make it stand out or make one thing from your room to stand out. There is more but I’d rather want you to do research on it first and if you really enjoy it then go for it.

    I hope people will stop using the term interior designer to themselves when they don't have the degree and are not licensed interior designers. People who don't have the degree and are not licensed are called interior 'decorators' instead. Such a disrespect to those people who actually studied the degree worked hard to have their license.
    *before you come at me, I am an interior design student myself and we are taught not to call ourselves interior designers yet because we don't have the degree and are not licensed as it is illegal to use. Even if we graduate as long as we are not yet licensed we can't use the title interior designer.
