Great new format, guys! Love the banter, and found the comparisons between European and American design spot on. There are too many U.S. "must be perfect" interiors. Down with all that.

This is so true, because Americans realy have a taste for boring colors. Many American designers are trying to make things so perfect that it becomes very boring and not interesting. I have a hard time living here in USA, I miss bold colors.

There is a wide range of disciplines within the career of interior design. Some of the disciplines include: structure, function, specialized performance, special group needs, discipline needed for business, computer technology, presentation skills, craft skills, social disciplines, promotional disciplines, professional disciplines, aesthetic disciplines, and disciplines with cultural implications. This list shows how interior designing encompasses many different disciplines and requires education in science and technology.
