## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Even through USA centric still relevant in other western countries
*by  on Reviewed in the United States June 2, 2021*

Really great 'bible' for a beginner interior designer. Lots of wise advice. Although I am in NZ this reference book still has a large amount of relevance.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Thorough Guide to the Business of Interior Design
*by  on Reviewed in the United States October 18, 2012*

This is a thorough and clearly written guide to beginning and running an interior design business. The chapters cover and are entitled:1. Finding Your Place in Interior Design2. Starting or Changing Your Business Type or Structure3. Planning for Profit and Growth4. Setting Up a Design Studio5. The Design Team6. Business Development7. Charging for Your Services8. Succeeding in Project Management9. Working with Sources and Contractors10. Managing Your Office11. Managing and Securing Your Financial Position12. Growing Your Firm and Your Professional SkillsThe author also speaks to the personality of designers and qualities that would help their effectiveness in different aspects of the design business. The book also contains several sample ASID contracts. There are also templates for project managements sheets, budget sheets and sample invoices. In the back of the book is a comprehensive list of schools, by state, for studying design, professional associations, and a thorough glossary for terms used in the book.My only criticism is that because this is a book aimed at the visually-inclined, the book's design could have been a little more colorful and creative - perhaps with some illustrations. That said, this 549-page tome is a good, straightforward guide to the business.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ The Interior Design Business Handbook
