I think it would be best to get a degree in interior design, just to cover yourself. Designers have an “ASID” after their names if they’ve completed a four-year degree in design. If you just want to dabble, or learn as you go, or even if you have a great style sense, try focusing on one aspect of design–like, paint, or furniture–and concentrate on that. Then, you could market yourself as a paint specialist or furniture consultant rather than a designer. For tax purposes, you could start as a sole prop and file a Schedule C.

Best to take a course in interior design. I do not know the laws in New York, but you also will need a lot of money or at least a substantial loan, and I also wish you great success.

Regulations dictate that only those who have met or exceeded a certain level of accredited education and, in some states, passed the qualifying exam administered by the National Council for Interior Design Qualification can use the title of Interior Designer. In 18 states, they must be licensed before they can be called an Interior Designer.

Before you spend a lot of cash to get a degree or open a business. You might want to check out this web page. It’s possible to share your expertise and make money without going into debt. It also has some soul searching questions for you to answer to see if this is what you really want to do. I’ve owned 4 businesses and wished I would have come across this site a long time ago. Good luck!
