I am a senior in high school and I am constantly thinking about my future (maybe a little too much). However I am really interested in interior designing, but I am concerned that I won’t make much money off of it here in Indiana.
Do you want to be like an interior designer? If you do, then just move to a big city, unless you live in the city. I don’t know how in-demand interior designers are in your area, but I think you will have a good chance if you try in like Indianapolis….. Try to look up some websites to see if the demand will be increasing or decreasing in the next 5-10 years in your area. I know for sure that they will probably be in demand in say NY, Cali, or other big places like that…..
I am in Cal & am an interior designer & I can tell right now, is not really the time to be super successful in the field. The big superstars are fine, but the majority of designers are in the mid range (with upper middle class clients) and they are not doing too well right now. I don’t see that changing much for the next several years. So, it sorta depends on how successful you are at getting hired by a top notch firm or finding recession-proof clients.
