I haven’t done any research or anything, so don’t come down on me too hard for asking.
My degree is in Architecture but I have always been more interested in interior & kitchen design, plus you don’t need a license to practice interior design in the US.
Any thoughts, resources?
And where do designers get those enormous design catalogues from? (think Candice Olson from Divine Design) Manufacturers?
Hi, I live in NY state. We don’t need one here, as far as I know.
How do you go about starting an interior design business?

Depending on where you live, you WILL need a license to call yourself an interior designer. You may also need a license to have an interior design company (I know you do in Texas). Maybe this will help:

As far as the catalogs, they come from the manufacturers. You usually have to prove that you are an interior designer to get one for free, else you may have to pay for them. You can contact the company who will put you in contact with a rep who will help you.
