    Wtf? Why does an interior designer need training?

    Isn’t it just like picking colors and furniture?

      Usually, but in Florida you have to follow very specific rules so no one realizes you’re gay.

        Place the colours of the rainbow on too many walls? Believe it or not, straight to jail

      Actually you might be surprised how much building code interior designers have to know.

      For example, in California permanently installed kitchen islands are required to have electrical outlets on either side. You gotta know that to design the kitchen in a way that won’t get your clients in trouble.

        But that actually comes into effect when your contractors start pulling prints and applying for permits.

        So people don’t trip on cords connected to the walls?

      Maybe this is a case of interior designer and interior decorators being different things

        Right, like the difference between a landscaper and a landscape architect.
