  1. Most designers weakness - can't judge the proportion of the object on paper. Well, definitely not me.
  2. I usually avoid those well designed restaurants, especially in Asia, since they usually have bad food.
  3. Interior design is 10% design, 90% coordination.
  4. interior designers must be responsible for the clients' health, safety, and welfare, not just simply arranging & selecting furniture.
  5. Poor designed hotels are around the world, not just in the US.
  6. Interior designers in the US are not very internationalized, especially residential designers.
  7. Integrity of interior design wp.me/p29WjX-8M
  8. Who is still using imperial system? Guess the US still misses the colonial era.
  9. Green exhaustion!
  10. I realize the drawing software becomes easier to operate, so hope design firms hiring people really based on talents now.
  11. I don't like to read design magazines to get inspired like many others do.
  12. Most articles in ASID magazines are marketing related, few related to designs.
  13. Project management can be learned thruout years but creativity can't.
  14. Reading thru design magazines while designing? Im sorry, Its called tweaking, not designing.
  15. Water saving plumbing fixtures, great! Incentives for specifying them, none.
  16. Don't wait to hire an interior designer after the construction has started so that we also can participate the space planning process
  17. It's time to restore interior design back to a creativity driven business.
  18. Implement LEED isn't easy for designers in S FL since interior design here r done mostly on site verbally.
  19. The initial cost for green tech is still too high, more government incentives needed.
  20. LEED certifying for single family home becomes mendatory? I do see it's coming.
