The Future of Interior Design

     I would love to write some deep, heart-felt entry about the future of Interior Design, but I don't feel that anything I could say would be that life-altering.
     The future of Interior Design, to me, is unpredictable.  I hope that in the future people will understand my profession a little bit better and see how important Interior Designers really are to our community.  The benefits of Interior Design are countless, yet no one seems to even know what Interior Design is- but  I'm finished complaining about it.
     I'll go ahead and say this:  I am the future of Interior Design.  I will take the responsibility for the ignorance of my family, friends, peers, strangers...  and I will do my best to educate them.  The only thing we can do as designers is educate.  We can prove that we are important by always putting our best foot forward and keeping the needs and emotions of the people first.  Interior design is about bettering the lives of people.
     It's not about trends, who's best at it or how much you spend or make in a year... In my career I plan to do a lot of pro bono work.  I decided to be a part of this profession because I want to help people.  As long as I'm doing what I love and I'm making people happy, I don't care how others feel about my career.
