HI THERE! With the influx of questions in the comment section, I’m considering doing a Q+A all about interior design. If this is something of interest, please feel free to DM me @kelseyomeis on instagram OR write your question in the comments below! :)

@jalisanelson3607 2 года назад

Whyyyy did you LITERALLY just describe me and my reasoning for wanting to be an interior designer! I literally play/played sims for HOURS simply building homes 😭

@KelseyOmeis 2 года назад

@Green_Cloudsz Год назад

I keep on playing bloxburg, I’m good at decorating in the game but not making a shape of the house, and in irl I am a big fan of hobby lobby and could go there every day.

@danita1090 Год назад

Hahaha me too, in my teens I’d be up until dawn playing sims, until my parents would sent me to bed. I don’t know how it never came to my mind that interior design was what interested me... after 10 years of studying and working in communications and marketing, now I’m deciding if going into interior Design and this video helped me a lot ❤️

I go to UNT Dallas and was enrolled as a Sociology Major and Psychology Minor; I realized this semester that I DO NOT WANT TO BE A SOCIAL WORKER! I like to help people and talk to them, but that comes from a desire to SOLVE PROBLEMS! I was thinking about which degree do I want to switch to, and I took it back to my childhood. . What did I always do when I was younger? Build legos, paint, draw, make bows and arrows, play computer games such as Age Of Empires and THE SIMS! I just realized, no, I just got confirmation that I need to be an INTERIOR DESIGNER! I always was extremely fascinated with architecture and designing! THANK YOU FOR BRINGING UP THE SIMS! I swear that was all I needed to hear! Interior Design, here I come🤲🏾 Also, I wish you all unlimited success and happiness🤲🏾

I just graduated college with a bachelors degree in criminal justice but I never had time to do internships while in college because I was a full-time student and also worked full-time.

@jessicajames9700 2 года назад

Hi! I’m a college freshman looking at options on whether to transfer schools and switch my major. I applied to many schools for interior design however ended up at my current school in a different program mostly for financial reasons. It’s a great school however they don’t offer interior design, something I believe I am passionate about. I am conflicted on whether I should stay and pursue a different degree and go for a masters in interior design later or switch majors now and pursue a degree that I am more confident in that I will be passionate about. I am looking at doing an interior design internship this summer to see if it’s what I want to study and to see if I can thrive working in the city being that I’ve always shifted away from studying in an urban setting. Do you have any advice on recognizing when you have a passion for interior design? Also do you have any tips on how to financially support myself transferring into an interior design program? I really do love this video. It has helped me so so much!!! Thank you :)

@KelseyOmeis 2 года назад

Hey Jessica!! Thanks for your comment, I’ll try my hardest to give the best advice I can. I think it’s 100% a great idea to intern somewhere first to see if you actually like it. Sometimes things seem fun until you actually do it for work, and interior design as a profession is not as it appears on TV. You’ll most likely be in the material library and doing grunt work but everyone starts there and it’s still valuable! As for financial advice, the great thing about this industry is the abundance of jobs. Obviously things change from year to year, but overall it’s very rare to have an unpaid internship. I worked both full time and part time at various companies while in school, PAID, so that does help a lot as well as increase your experience when looking for jobs post-college. Overall, do some more research before taking the leap, but DO NOT “wait until you’re older” to pursue your dream. Youll regret not starting sooner. 🥰 much love!

Hey, I really enjoyed your video. I had some questions for you. I'm probably a little older than you (looking at 30 real soon), and after bouncing around many different low-wage jobs in my 20s, I am considering going back to school. I am trying to pick a career that I am interested in, pays the bills, and fits with my personality. I, too, played the sims, painted/decorated doll houses, and rearranged furniture as a child. I'm analytical, fascinated with design and love playing around with digital art programs. I was considering illustration, or graphic design but love the idea of interior design. If you had to start your degree at 30, would you still do it? If you wanted to work in a different country, how difficult would that be? Is interior design a career that you would recommend to someone who wants to have children? Could you make a video describing what your actual day to day work looks like and the type of hours you work? Thanks for the video, it was very informative. I hope you have success with your channel.

@KelseyOmeis 2 года назад

Hey Dani! Don’t stress, I’m right behind ya headin for those 30s (30 FLIRTY & THRIVING). It is literally never too late to start a new career, and it seems like we have very similar skills and interests that makes me believe you would love interior design (creative & analytical. Design is one big art puzzle to solve!). My question to you though would be what kind of career are you looking for? A professional, more corporate career path would require more schooling, which is a huge decision to consider. If you’re looking for a more decoration-based career, it is possible to get started and potentially intern/assist other decorators without any training but that I don’t have much experience with and little to no advice. Regardless, I suggest you do more research and soul-searching before you dive head-first into a new career. Good luck with everything and follow your heart! P.S. I’d like to potentially make a new video surrounding my job in my detail in the near future:) ❤️❤️

Ok first of all screw those people. You can make a living doing anything if you love it. There’s a lot to unpack here in your question, but what i will say is do some more soul searching. If you decide that this is really something you want to do, then school or some kind of course may be your best way to getting there. But know that school is a big time and financial commitment.

Are there related fields or alternative paths? I am 45 with an accounting degree and a side hustle in event planning... Im too old to go through 10 years of school and an internship to just be a beginner at 55 lol

Can you become an interior designer without doing trades in high school?

@shaydasepehri9612 Год назад

I’m thinking about becoming one! My bachelors is in business but I’ve always loved arts as a kid and designing, should I get another degree or do the class by class idea you suggested? Thanks!

People's paths are fascinating. As a wee lad I was obsessed with (and highly skilled at) arranging and decorating interior spaces soooo I told mom I should be an interior designer. Her friend later said mom worried I was gay 😄 Daww. Back when people worried about those things. I too studied architecture for a while but dropped out bc I was just... too.. high bro. I went on to advanced linguistic studies specializing in Contemporary Sarcasm. Go me 🥳

I was wondering if you could elaborate on showroom jobs a little more? In your opinion, would you look for a job with a furniture showroom, a materials showroom, or a more specialized product? And what do you think about big box like IKEA vs smaller/local? Thanks 😊

@KelseyOmeis Год назад

First off, Ikea is a retail brand that sells to the general public. When i say a showroom job i mean more for luxury or commercial brands specifically for our industry. Things the general public doesn’t have access to such as Steelcase furniture, custom lighting manufacturers, DesignTex fabric. Here, you are representing and selling the brand to designers and architects to specify in their projects. I personally have not done this because I love designing too much, but I know of soooo many people that have switched from the design world to the sales world because it typically makes more money and theres more job flexibility while still being in the industry.

Omg I literally went to Oneonta and at the start of my second year I also had a realization I was kinda wasting my time and money there so then I transferred home and I think I just figured out interior design is the way to go for me. (i cant lie i miss the parties so much tho lol)

@KelseyOmeis Год назад

Parties were UNREAL but also i was like “oh shit i dont have any real skills” lol

Hi! May i ask how old are you?

@calliezuniga6199 2 года назад

Not sure if you will see this, but I am a current junior in high school. I have been looking into interior design and have been educating myself about it, but I am a bit intimidated. If I have zero art skills or background, and can not draw to save my life is that ok? Also, if the school load really that bad? Will I be spending every night til 2 am working on school or will I have some free time? Just curious! It sounds like a great major but it also sounds crazy.

@KelseyOmeis 2 года назад

I see you!!! There’s SO much in this comment and not enough words to type it. I will be doing a Q&A about interior design as a career and school and would love to answer it in depth then. Until then, don’t be nervous and follow your heart!❤️
