WHAT QUALIFICATIONS SHOULD I LOOK FOR WHEN HIRING PROFESSIONAL INTERIOR DESIGNERS IN LOS ANGELES
Hi. My name is Jo-Ann Capelaci. I'm the owner and principal designer for Colours and Concepts, listed under Interior Designers in Los Angeles. We're a Thousand Oaks-based Interior Design firm serving Los Angeles & Ventura Counties.
One question many people ask is
What qualifications should I look for when selecting professional Interior Designers in Los Angeles?
The selection process for a professional Interior Designer can be relatively simple if you consider these criteria.
They should have credentials by CCIDC or ASID.
CCIDC is the California Council for Interior Design Certification, and is the highest standard of professionalism for interior designers in the State of California.
ASID is the American Society of Interior Designers and also has a stringent certification process.
These certifications also help ensure that your Designer has extensive knowledge of building codes and construction practices.
Beyond schooling and certification, the better Interior Designers in Los Angeles tend to have experience with a wide range of clients and projects, so they have a vast resource of ideas and solutions for you to tap.
Your Designer should have worked with a broad range of local contractors, who have delivered their products and services on time and on budget.
With so many variables, this is essential to the smooth flowing of your project from conception to completion.
Also, your Interior Designer should be dedicated to lifelong learning.
One way to know this is to find out if they are an active member of different industry associations such as the American Institute of Architects, The Interior Design Society and other associations where they mingle with other professionals, take ongoing classes, etc.
Also CCIDC and ASID require designers to take continuing education credits every year to improve their skill set.
Ddddd The better Interior Designers in Los Angeles are also actively involved in their communities, contributing time and resources to local charities, Chambers of Commerce, and other local organizations.
In essence, they should be an active participant in the community.
Your professional Interior Designer should be experienced enough to design your type of project, whether it be
- a sophisticated media room,
- a child's room,
- a creative workspace,
- an inspiring environment to entertain guests,
- a solitary space to reflect
- and much more.
Many people don't realize that Certified Interior Designers are required to sign a "Code of Ethics". Part of the code states that "the Designer "shall undertake to perform professional services only when he or she, together with his or her consultants, is qualified by education, training or experience to perform the services required.
A Certified Interior Designer should not work outside their specific area of expertise."
Your can view the complete code at www.CCIDC.org.

ABOUT COLOURS AND CONCEPTS
At Colours and Concepts we've been providing a wide range of professional Interior Design services throughout Los Angeles & Ventura counties for almost a decade.
We serve a wide range of clients and collaborate with:
- Developers and Builders who want to increase the value of their properties and projects;
- Contractors, Architects and Homeowners who are renovating or building new; and
- Individual Homeowners desiring to improve their living environment.
I studied design in Toronto, and went on to found and run a design firm for ten years. I then relocated to Southern California, where I have been creating beautiful and effective living spaces throughout the Southland for almost a decade.
I am a Certified Interior Designer and am a past Vice President of the Tri Valley Chapter of the Interior Design Society, one of the nation's largest design organizations dedicated to serving the residential interior design industry.
I am also an affiliate member of the American Institute of Architects, and an active member of the Conejo Valley Chamber of Commerce, where I recently redesigned their office spaces.
Our firm has extensive experience working with a wide range of projects large and small, in diverse environments, and serving clients with all types of personalities and tastes.
For example, in Toronto people are often interested in more traditional styles, with jeweled colors and deeper tones. Whereas in Southern California there is more of a mix, from Tuscan and Spanish to French Country to Contemporary, often with lighter color tones.
We can design in all these styles and others.
We have redesigned floor plans, opened up spaces to make them roomier and more inviting, created extensive media and entertainment areas, developed outstanding family and child-friendly rooms and spaces, and enhanced kitchens and bathrooms.
We have improved work spaces, helped select:
- furniture,
- paint,
- wall and window coverings,
- refurbished and redesigned after fire and water damage,
and prepared complete turnkey custom house design.
And sometimes we've had an inspiring time with those clients simply wanting to improve, beautify or just inject some fun into their living environments.
People are often surprised at the amazing possibilities and options available to them.
If you have a project or are simply considering the possibilities of changing your living space or your working environment, We'd love to chat with you.
Call us anytime, at 818-259-2752.
