Is there anyone out there who is an Interior Designer? I want to know what to expect when and after I attain my degree in Interior Design. The work, the average pay, the process, the team, the pros and cons; everything that I’ll be expected of me.

i want to go to school for interior design but i want to know more like what jobs can i get, how much can i be making a year and how pricey it is to go through school. and if it is hard finding a job.

I need to find some "rules" of interior design… expecially laws/rules that deal with colors.
-
A website that teaches the rules would be great…. For instance I want to know if there is a rule about the colors you choose for your kitchen wall and cupboards…. etc….

Much thanks in advance!

Im only 14, But i really want to be an Interior Designer when i get older. I’m taking Home Ec. and Journalism for my freshmen year which doesn’t really help me…But I was wondering if anybody knew anything i could do to start learning about interior design and things i should get a head start on? Thanks so much =)

I’m clueless about interior design/home decorating style. Are there any well recommended books or articles on the subject?

I really have an eye for it, but I’m in school for Digital Arts. I LOVE interior design, but can’t afford to switch majors yet. Do I need a degree?
@Delicate: Digital Arts and Graphic Design are the same thing. Only, I’ll be qualified to work on webpages, make songs, etc. DA is a higher quality GD.
