Let's build your design career. 🎨

I've trained hundreds of aspiring interior designers, and the same three mistakes come up every time.

1. Choosing paint colors before planning the space

Most beginners start with Pinterest mood boards and jump straight to color. But color is one of the last decisions a professional makes. Space planning, traffic flow, and natural light should come first. The right color depends entirely on the room's architecture and function.

2. Ignoring scale and proportion

That gorgeous oversized sectional? It'll swallow a 12x14 living room whole. Understanding scale — how furniture relates to the room and to each other — is the single most impactful skill you can develop. It's the difference between a space that feels "off" and one that feels intentional.

3. Designing for themselves instead of the client

Your personal taste is not a design strategy. Professional designers learn to listen, interpret lifestyle needs, and create spaces that reflect the client's personality. This shift in mindset is what turns a hobby into a career.

If you're serious about becoming a professional interior designer, these fundamentals matter more than any trend. We cover all of this — and much more — in our Complete Interior Design Course.
