What Recuirments Do You Need To Become A Inside Hous Designer

Do you need math to become a interior designer?

Where I go to school, Algonquin College in Canada, Interior Design is a BA. SO basically it is university program in a way. You need a University Math credit in grade 12 to get into interior design. I took Pre Design (program to develop portfolios for graphic, interior and other design programs) last year and know 3 people who had to take a math course to get into Interior design because they didn't take it in High School. It is a very demanding course and takes a lot out of you. I'm taking Graphic Design and you don't need math. Neither for interior decorating.
Good Luck

What do You need to become an interior designer ?

Interior design is a glamorous job but the occupation pool is small and competitive. A university degree isn't essential and in fact unrecognized in many countries.

Research universities courses & find out what score & high school subjects are required for admittance into your desired degree.

There may not be any prerequisite subject. I'd recommend taking subjects in high school that relate to interior design. Find subjects that involve drawing, drafting or programs such as AutoCAD, adobe suite. Photography would be beneficial as it teaches design principles. Science isn't relevant but I'm sorry to tell you, Maths wouldn't hurt as you will have to do some measuring.

According to payscale.com the median salary is 32-49k.

I'm going to attach a link (check sources) to a real interior designers resume so you can have an exemplar and clearer idea.

I really wanted to study interior design but it wasn't available where I live, so I've gone for second best, architecture. You are lucky if you can study it!!! :)

Good luck :)

How do I become an interior designer without any related degree in that field but with deep interest in fine arts? I am a techie in IT.

Now this is where most people make a mistake of perception! This is for you to understand that Interior Design and Interior Decoration are two distinct faculties and both are very often erroneously confused with each other. And then, there's Interior Stylizing that forms a third faculty altogether!There are some common basics that the first two faculties share, such as..Knowing to discern between masonry and RCC, and treat each appropriatelyLayout PlanningProficiency with Drafting SoftwareBasic Study of human body proportionsAesthetic SenseKnowledge about current materials, trends and technologiesBeing updated about current market rates for material and labour etc.As long as you have the above, there is no reason why the lack of a professional certification should stop you from becoming an Interior Decorator.Interior Stylizing comprises getting a certain ‘look’ for a space by assembling the right mix of ready products. This is the best outlet for someone keen to quench their artistic thirst! So, if you plan to turn into an Interior Stylist, you could start right after reading this line!However, if you aim to venture beyond presenting a merely ‘good looking’ space, then you ought to be knowledgeable in-depth on the technical aspects of Design, such as Electrical, HVAC, Plumbing, RCC, Metal Fabrication, Ergonomics, BOQ’s and alike.It is precisely here that even Interior Design graduates often lose out. Technical knowhow is probably not covered adequately in their syllabus.. And these are aspects you just cannot afford to learn on the job, especially if you have accepted a project independently… as then, you would end up experimenting with the lakhs (or crores) of money riding on the project.If you are keen to get into technical territory, it is most advisable to first assist and get trained for at least 5 years under a good Architect who is willing to accept a total novice in their team.It may interest you to note, that if you discount the celebrity wives who have turned ‘Designers’ owing to their hi-society social goodwill, today it is mostly qualified Architecture and Construction Engineering Graduates who are managing Interior Design projects across India.….. And Professionals who have invested 5+ valuable years purely to study their craft, have obviously not wasted their years polishing themselves! :)

Average starting salary: $21,200.00
Average salary after 5 years: $39,100.00
Average salary after 10 to 15 years: $69,640.00
The academic and professional requirements for most areas of design are fairly general, with the emphasis on portfolio development and professional experience. Interior design, however, has nationally–standardized requirements. Interior designers must have a bachelor’s degree. Employers look favorably on those who have studied engineering, design, and art. Those who want more specific study complete interior design programs. Across the United States and Canada, there are 105 colleges and universities accredited by the Foundation for Interior Design Education Research. Interior designers must also be familiar with federal, state, and local interior design codes (involving such issues as capacity, flammability, and stress levels). To be federally licensed, prospective interior designers must pass the qualification exam given by the National Council for Interior Design. Professional organizations are significant in this field, and many interior designers find it helpful to join one or more of them. To become eligible for membership, one must have completed two to three years of graduate work, worked in the field for two to three years, and passed the federal licensing exam.

Question for interior designers, my house needs decorating!?

Have you ever heard of the magazine called 'Dwell', that would be a very good inspirational souce for you to look into.

Let's start with the tile floor: You can break up areas with the use of area rugs. You will be shocked to know that there are some pretty modern edgy carpets out there. Have one for the living area and another for the dining area.
Open floor plans are very tricky when you love a lot of color, you almost always have to choose a color and slab it all over the walls. Most people do one of two things, they either commit to a neutral (now remember, neutrals aren't always beige, they are just toned down versions of saturated colors that are the same tone as beige) and then use the colors they love to punch up the intensity in their accent decor and art work. The other thing people do is be brave and paint that area that jewel tone color they love so much and they tone it down with lighter colors in their decor.

Now what do you do with all of that, say for instance your favorite color is turquoise, you paint the area that color. For the living area you tone it down with washy aquas, and pale lime green. Your base color is white. Your dining room will be the same colors but instead of the lime green, a citron yellow or blood orange. Examples:

If this is too bright for you forget the colors, go with blacks and/or silver accents like these:

And those are your options for the first floor.
In terms of wood, it all depends if you want to be heavy or light. You could go inbetween and look for furniture pieces made out of zebra wood http://www.artdecoltd.com/images/zebra_table1.jpg
Beautiful stuff. Again, go find that Dwell Magazine and look through it. The options are endless for your house.

Good Luck!

What steps do I need to take to become a lead game designer on a AAA game?

NepotismThe AAA industry is incestuous as hell. Nepotism isn’t just common, it’s rampant. While I have applied for and held lead game design positions in the past, it’s important to note that Lead Game Design isn’t even the top of the food chain on any particular game.Chains of CommandYou’ve got the Creative Director, the Design Director, the Producer, and as is often the case for AAA, the Executive Producer, all of whom can pull rank as they see fit to get what they want into the game. If you’ve ever wondered why companies that once produced amazing AAA games suddenly feel like they’re following an archaic market tested formula that lacks innovation, that’s why.Control, Control, You Must Have ControlYou should ask yourself though, how much control are you willing to sacrifice in order to increase the scope of what you want to work on, potentially in a direction you have no interest in going. Working at a AAA studio almost insures that your opinion on the direction of the game is going to be over-ridden or entirely ignored (no matter how right you might be). That’s just the nature of a AAA studio…Make MoneyzWhich is why if you truly want to be in charge, and have the scope of a AAA game, you need to become independently wealthy. It’s not even enough to have a proven track record, because unless you have a Blizzard-esque track record, you will be beholden to a publisher that may arbitrarily start demanding things from your game that you don’t want to do. The only way to go AAA and maintain control, is 100% self-funding, or some sweet rich very understanding angel investors.TLDRStep 1: Get rich.Step 2: Form your own company.Step 3: Hire the necessary people (either yourself or now you have to hire managers).Step 4: Make your game. ← Still the hard part.Alternative Path 1If you know someone who has a AAA game studio, or can develop personal relationships with people who do, get them to trust you enough to let you do whatever you want. That’s one other way I’ve seen it done (Ubisoft cough cough).Alternative Path 2Start with the minimum viable product for your game. Find a way to monetize it for sustainability, then release. As you gain success, start building out the scope of the game over time until you get it where you want.

How do I become a home architect and interior designer at the same time?

To practice architecture, of any building type, you must hold a professional 5 year BArch degree or a 4+2 MArch degree. (BArchs are being phased out in the US, although there are still schools offering them. Both are legally equitable degrees in terms of satisfying requirements for licensure.) Then you must complete the IDP, which is effectively a work training program that last for at least three years (last I checked this number average 4.5 years to complete,) before you can sit for your licensure, this occurs under the guidance of a licensed architect. Affer satisfying IDP requirements, you must complete a series of exams to finally get your license. You can practice architecture following school but you may not call yourself an architect (legally you can't,) nor can you stamp drawings, so you must work under a licensed architect. For interior design, which is not interior decorating, despite a huge overlap, you must also be licensed. You would have to confirm for your state, my knowledge of interior design, IDSA & NCIDQ requirements is not as great as in architecture, however, they often (always?) require a very similar process, a min. degree, I believe typically around 2 years work experience then sit for your license. Interior design v. Interior decorating, to over simplify it, besides the training requirements - anyone can become an interior decorator but not everyone an interior designer - is the knowledge base and application is deeper in interior design and can go beyond the scope of just furnishings and filling a space. Starting to get into a more technical analysis and scientific exploration of the use of space, emotions, etc. Designers may do some decoration but not vice versa.Many architects may serve the role as interior decorator as well, as there is some overlap in training. So to become an architect and interior decorator at the same time I would recommend becoming an architect. Architecture is the most rigorous and regulated of the two professions and you can't practice architecture without a degree and additional training.Best of luck(Written on phone-apologies for any wonky grammar or spelling errors)

What are the requirements necessary to become a mobile UI designer?

I actually started my career as a mobile designer then evolved onto other platforms as time went on.I started in mobile a couple of years before the iPhone first came out, designing crappy looking WAP sites. I went straight from university into a mobile agency, as mobile took off, I really didn't need to expand from my specific area of design as the demand has always been there.Although responsive design has changed things a bit, the need for mobile UI specialists is still massive, big tech companies like Spotify, Vimeo etc are hiring app designers specifically. There's defo a lack of skills in the market. So only mastering mobile design is no bad thing.Here's a couple of my suggestions of what you need:Understanding context - with web design the user is likely in front of a computer or laptop. With mobile it could be a wide range of usage occasions. It will affect how you design interfaces and what features to use. One great example is a cooking lesson app that lets you navigate using voice commands so you don't need to touch the screen with messy handsYou need to keep up to date with every OS update and what that offers you as a designer. New features give you the opportunity to design better experiences and make the most out of the platform. The difference between a mobile designer and any other is that the mobile designer should know the platform inside and out. You'd be surprised how many designers create UI's that simply aren't possible because they don't know the capabilities of the platform. Dominate that area.From my experience for every 10 iPhone app requests I get, I get 1 Android, so I've focused my energies on the platform that earns me the most money. I've worked at dozens of agencies and when given the choice of where to put their mobile marketing budget, a brand will always pick iOS first, then Android.You need to be good a simplifying and focusing your design, there's no room for clutter on mobileLearn about interactions. I've got the feeling that designers who skillup in this area now are going to be in high demand in the next year or two when it becomes a sought after skill.Experiment! Design some apps that you would want. Go all out, design the entire app, solve a problem or just have some fun and make something useless. But keep practising. Make prototypes, enjoy yourself, if you can, find a likeminded dev who will code up your side-project, you'll learn so much that way.Bit of a ramble! Hope that helps
