What Does an Interior Designer Do?
An interior designer can do a variety of things in the field of design, and considers the needs of the individual or company that hires him or her. Primarily, the interior designer must blend aesthetics, or the look and feel of a place, with functionality and use of a space, and does so in consideration of the available working area, desires, and budget of the client. Being artistic, having knowledge of building codes, and being able to please the client are all valuable assets for those who wish to have a career in interior design. Having good listening skills, excelling at following through with concepts, and being able to draw, and use programs like AutoCAD® can also be of assistance. Most interior designers are trained in art or design schools, and bring a variety of talents to their profession.

Opportunities
As an Interior designer, you could be employed by retail outlets, interior design consultancies, or architectural practices.

However, as many interior designers are freelance (either completely self-sufficient or under contract to a design agency) and build up their business through word of mouth, there are limited formal vacancies and competition is strong. Some vacancies are not advertised, so it is essential that you make contacts, for example by attending trade fairs and joining professional organisations.
