Are you interested in the decorating aspect, or the design aspect? Have you looked at schools? Are they CIDA accredited? Are you interested in residential, commercial, healthcare, hospitality, or corporate? It may serve you well to answer these questions, or at least think about them/research them. I was given some advice when attending a community college... go to school located where you want to live. Smart advice. I started in architecture, got a BFA in interior design, and ended up in construction development and real estate. I would advise you to learn as much as possible about construction, it may help you avoid problems, give you an edge in the industry, and command respect when dealing with the many other professionals you will encounter. Good luck!

The best thing you can do on this forum is to ask specific questions so people can give you concrete advice. For example, you might ask 'what art work would look good with this couch?' or something similar so the question is narrow enough for people to answer. There are a lot of people on here who are very into the modern look so you'll get lots of help since your ideabook indicates you're into that. My advice to you is to make your house your own. Go with things you like and that make you happy, and don't make it so matchy-match that it looks like a furniture showroom rather than a house. You want your personality to come through so be sure you add your own personal touches. Good luck.

For many years, most people use cedar to plank the walls of wardrobes and closets, to prevent moths from eating the cloth. It is said that the high concentrations of cedar oils can kill moth larvae. Plus adds a nice aroma to the closet.In terms of bricks or marble, both are porous and will hold humidity. This after time can cause musty smell in your clothing which is an indication of mold and mildew present in the brick or stone. This however, depends on where you live. Hot climates like Arizona it should not be a problem. You could apply a good 15 to 20 years penetrating sealer which would help to prevent that moisture build up.

The days when our homes were not as intricately designed as the rest of our lives are a far cry now. Today nothing is a better representation of our selves than our own home is.

Following this new set tradition, there are a lot of top interior designers in Mumbai who can help you get your dream house done and dusted. Here’s a list of some of the key points that you need to keep in mind when you are getting your house done the way you want it to be. Do your Research – the first step to most of the things in life is to do your research. And interior designing is no exception to this. Keep exploring, eventually you will stumble upon an image that would be an exact depiction of what you had thought about for your house, or at the very least you will find something that will be the ghost of an idea and looking at it, you will suddenly know what it was that you have always wanted for your home. Go through designers’ portfolio – once you have an inkling of what you want, the next step is to find somebody who will be able to help you to extract that idea from your head and superimpose it on your house.

Together, you can easily figure out a perfect combination of things to do in your home. Don’t be afraid to experiment – Go for something you have never done before to your house. Experiment. It might end up looking better than you could have imagined. Or it could end up looking hideous. See, that’s the thing about renovating. By its very definition, it essentially never has to end.
