About this episode

Hey, curious creatives! I've got something exciting to share with you all. I created a fun quiz to help you find out what type of interior designer you should be. It's quick and easy, with just six simple questions, and you'll gain valuable insights into your personal style, design preferences, and the type of environments that fuel your creative fire. The quiz will ultimately lead you to your design niche.

I've also discussed the four conclusions or result answers - Residential, Commercial, Hospitality, or Spatial Experience Design, shedding light on the different roles, approaches, and challenges each one presents.

Interior Design is so diverse, but there's something for everyone in this creative field! And if you're multi-faceted like me, try the quiz a few times and see how your answers lead to different outcomes.

So, whether you've just discovered your passion for interior design or are looking to refine your skills and explore new horizons, tune in, take the quiz, and let me help you on your journey to becoming an interior design pro!

Lastly, share your quiz results with me on Instagram at @rwarddesign. I can't wait to see what kind of Interior Design you should be doing! Let's stay creative and enjoy the remaining interviews in our summer series together!
