WHY INTERIOR DESIGNING?!: I'm interested in this career because I like picturing the inside of a building or room with a fantastic design to make people go "wow!" I already knew I would like to go into this profession because from every house I move into I loved to help decorate and arrange things to a style fitting for home.
EDUCATION: You would need an Associates degree for the least for this career. A major in interior designing is required. A school in Florida for this career would be Winter Park Tech, or International Academy of Designing and Tech-Tampa. The average GPA for this career is at least 3.0 and above. Requirements would be creativity *~*
COMPENSATION: The average starting salary is $43.13 hourly. The median salary of this career $49,00 to $91,360 or more. The setting for this career would be anywhere in a florida building or any other state.
DAY-TO-DAY ASPECTS: A uniform is not obligated for this career. For the weekly schedule, technically they work full time or try and fit their time in with their clients so it can be from early in the morning to late at night or just a set date for the week and set or random times. The everyday tasks are.. Search for and bid on new projectsDetermine the client’s goals and requirements for the project Consider how the space will be used and how people will move through the space Sketch preliminary design plans, including electrical and partition layouts Specify materials and furnishings, such as lighting, furniture, wall finishes, flooring, and plumbing fixtures Create a timeline for the interior design project and estimate project costs Place orders for materials and oversee the installation of the design elements Conduct the construction administration of the project and coordinate with general building contractors to implement the plans and specifications to build the project Visit the site after the project is complete, to ensure that the client is satisfied. Equipment would be a blue print, clipboard, and well your creativity skillz ;)
OUTLOOK: The outlook for my future in 10 years would be very good since I would be making almost $100,000 and i'll probably reach that goal since I'm gonna stride to be the best. It will be easy to find a job because interior designing is a little under architects and I can get a job in that category any time if i just work a little harder.

REFLECTION: Some perks of this career is that you can design places however you want according to your clients theme, and pick out cool furniture. I would still consider this career because I've loved interior designing for a very long time and it's just so much fun, I can even go work in China with my dad or renovate his house or my siblings houses too! And of course my friends house too. (Alysha, Samantha, Taylor, Gaby).
