Through the descriptions that we have found over the past day, people do seem to understand that creativity is necessary for interior design. People have a basic understanding of what we do, but they do not realize that there is much more to it than their basic understanding. I was glad to find that in the pictures on Google the spaces varied and there were several commercial interiors.
False:
A reflection of what "interior decorators" did in the past still remains as a reality for many who do not know what an "interior designer" actually does. Many of the images displayed focus strictly on the completion of the project, revealing the finished space. Although this is the ultimate goal, the interior designer's work happens through the process. The design process is where my passion lies. The creative process from ideation through sketching, research and models is where the interior design thrives in their element. This process is not usually displayed in the images and even the media shows, and if it is showed it is glorified through reality TV.
Unsure:
The stereotype that was reoccurring was often that Interior Designers where female. Because I have not yet been in the workplace I feel like I still do not know if that really is the reality. There is also the stereotype that men who are interior designers are homosexual. Although many of them featured in the media are given this label I wonder how this varies from the actual workplace.
