designed interiors

April 2012

Forgive my ignorance, but what exactly does studying interior design entail? What's the workload, etc.? Thanks!

The workload is hours upon hours of work. Like I said, for about 5 days I was doing school work from 10am until 7am to finish 1 project. It’s pretty much manual pencil drafting (which can take days), sketching, space planning, putting together sample boards, written concepts, program booklets, rendering and research. I can’t really put everything into words, one has to be taking the program to fully understand how difficult it can get. Let’s just say it’s a lot of blood, sweat and definitely tears lol.

Just want to let you know that I love your blog! I am studying interior design too, but here in Toronto. I'm in my last few weeks of my degree, and I cannot wait to get my life back. First year was the toughest, but you will get through it! Can't say the work load gets any lighter, but if you love what you do it isn't so bad, as you know! And unless you are in or have been in design school, NO ONE understands how much work it really is. So keep up the good work! :)

Honestly, I couldn’t have said it better myself! I give you props for making it so far into your program. A few of my classmates are already taking a break next semester. Wish you the best of luck in  your future career :D Keep me updated on your journey! Thanks for all the encouragement.

are you studying interior design?

Yes, although I’m currently only half a year in. It’s a lot of work, extremely time consuming! The last week of my semester I was up until 7am for 4 or 5 days straight doing HW. Get up around 10am, work til 7am, repeat.

hey! i love your blog :) im actually thinking about pursuing a career in architecture/interior design too! would you happen to have any personal advice/tips for me?

Thank you! As long as you feel you’re ready to seriously commit yourself to a program for architecture/interior design, I’m sure you’ll be able to handle it if the passion is there! Also, architecture is quite different from interior design, so maybe do some research and decide which one fits you better :) 

Good luck!

im soooo in love with your blog. its absolutely stunning! incredibly gorgeous! ohh how words cant do any justice to describe your blog.ive been thinking about becoming an interior designer but never really quite sure about it. but today, ive no doubt of becoming an interior designer and thanks to your wonderful, inspirational blog!

You’re too kind! Sorry about the late reply. If it’s really your passion, I say do it! By the looks of your blog (which is awesome & colourful btw, I’ve followed) you’d make a great designer. There’s so much to learn, more than you initially think though! It’s been a real eye opener for me. I hope you pursue it!
