“I really enjoyed reading this guide about the steps you need to follow if you are looking to open your own practice. I like how it outlines what to research to accomplish your goal as an interior designer. My favorite chapter is Chapter 2: Defining Your Business Goals, which describes all the services that you can provide such as rendering, and color determination, and how each of these is its own specialty skill. All in all, I highly recommend this guide for any person interested in starting an interior design journey, along with students and professionals. it’s easy to get overwhelmed or lost with all the information out there; this will come in handy as a powerful map to point you in the right direction.”
