Interior Design Degrees: Nevada Colleges

Career College: Nevada Interior Design Programs

Looking for accredited career colleges, technical schools, and universities in Nevada offering Interior Design degrees. Interior design is broadly defined as the finishing touches on an architectural interior. Interior designers enjoy an independent career with a creative flair.

The experience you are likely to have going to college in Nevada is as widely varied as the state itself. The mining towns of Eastern Nevada, such as Battle Mountain, Winnemucca and Elko, offer career experience in the resource extraction industry. Then there are the gambling towns of Reno and Las Vegas, which could not be more different from one another. Despite the widespread casinos and their associated nightlife, Reno is an established city with a real down-home feel. Reno has strong community organizations, and a small but hardy arts scene. Las Vegas is, to some, the Eighth Wonder of the World. This is a 24-hour city with world-class opportunities in the fields of entertainment and hospitality. Or perhaps you will be drawn to the serene desert life in the largely empty parts of Nevada between these cities.

Nevada Colleges: Interior Design Degrees

In the last recession, when jobs were scarce and once thriving businesses were floundering, big-box home furnishing stores like Home Depot and Loews made a fortune. During harder times, people were redesigning their homes. And even as the economy improves, the home designing bug has hardly worn off. The stores are still jammed and turn on your TV, and show after show features the latest celebrity designer of the moment.

All of these show that the times couldn't be better to get an interior design degree. Rarely does a field come along that is both booming and so creatively satisfying, and with no sign of fading away as an expanding industry.

Interior design is broadly defined as the finishing touches on an architectural interior. Lighting, furniture, decoration, and aesthetic design all fall under its wing. A good degree program therefore introduces you to all of these components. Classes will include basic concepts of interior design but also important elective subjects like drawing, sculpture and art theory so that you have the background to make exciting choices for a company or client.

And so much of interior design inovles problem-solving. A rule of thumb is that no matter how identical two spaces are, no two rooms are completely alike. Clients are different, electrical lay out can be different; even the smallest difference can change a project radically. A degree prepares you for all these vagaries of the business.

But most importantly, getting into interior design allows you to be creative and artistic without having to forgo a potentially lucrative career. It's the perfect union of art and commerce. Go for it!
