An interior decorator is not an interior designer.

Learn the facts.

Hire accordingly.

Support equal regulation.

Save the interior design profession.

Meet Scrib - GTM's mascot. Scrib is a fictional animal character that looks similar to a monkey in detective clothing. Scrib first pops out on the right side of the screen with a magnifying glass then disappears off screen. Scrib then jumps into view and introduces itself as the Green Tape Measure's fact checker. Scrib then has a thought bubble that says: Reasonable regulation? Sounds like deregulation.

Conclusion

Interior design can kill and should be regulated to prevent unqualified individuals from practicing.

But...

Regulating professions is not enough.

Cities must both enforce and adopt updated codes to prevent fires and loss of life.

Conclusion

About 8% (10 hours) of the average architecture program includes interior design instruction. This is about 16% of an interior design program.

While about 26% of the ARE potentially includes questions also found on the interior design exam, this is only about 127 questions, or 25% of the NCIDQ’s design-related questions.

Based on this analysis, it could be argued that licensed architects without an interior design education and credential are not qualified to practice interior design.

What is reasonable versus equal regulation?

Interior Design Legislation

Number of States by Decade

Line graph of interior design regulations

4 lines plotted on a graph with decades on the x-axis and number of states on the y-axis. The lines are labeled as the following: Regulation of "Interior Designer", Permitting Privileges, Restrictions, and Voluntary Registration. Overtime, regulation has decreased while the other three have increased.

Legend

Regulation of “Interior Designer”

Permitting Privileges: Laws allowing interior designers to stamp and sign their own drawings.

a solid orange line

Restrictions, including:

  • No changes to egress
  • Architects must lead projects where designer requires more than 2 other professionals
  • No increase in number of exits
  • Projects must be under 5000 square feet
  • No assembly spaces (such as theaters)
  • Only Office or Retail projects
  • No non-load-bearing walls that have casework (cabinets) or equipment (such as TVs)
a dashed orange line

Voluntary Registration: “Interior Designer” and “Interior Design” are not regulated.

Conclusion

Our analysis shows interior design is being deregulated.

“Reasonable” regulation also means additional restrictions on interior designers disguised as permitting privileges.

Why is this bad? In addition to public safety concerns, there is a negative impact on the livelihoods of interior designers. If an architect can also practice interior design, why would an employer or a customer hire an interior designer?

In contrast, “Equal” regulation means that interior designers have the same licensing structure as architects: The title "Interior Designer" and the practice of "Interior Design" are reserved for only those who have met state education and examination (i.e. NCIDQ) requirements. In return, licensed designers can practice in their field unrestricted and unsupervised and be given permitting privileges and a stamp. State laws must also capture the full scope of interior design.

Hiring a Designer

3 simple steps to follow when looking for a qualified interior designer

Step #1

Visit the NCIDQ directory:

NCIDQ Directory

Step #2

Search the database by project zip code for a designer with an active credential.

Step #3

Check the designer’s website or portfolio for experience with your type of project (i.e. residential versus commercial office)
