  • Get Paid What You're Worth
    2024/07/18

    Join professional interior designers Melissa Guerra, Melody Smith, and Timm Dolley as they discuss the elephant in the room: PRICE! You've heard it before. Sometimes you have to "fake it to make it" or sometimes you need to pick up work to pay the bills until you get to that "top tier" level of design where clients are literally beating down the door. Newsflash: It doesn't always work that way. Sometimes you lower your fees to gain a project only to find the client never quite respects you. Sometimes you ignore that gut feeling, and you take a job that lasts more than two years, and you're having to deal with clients you can't stand (and their feelings towards you might be mutual). In this industry, it's important to know your value because at the end of the day construction is complex, and the time it takes to build something beautiful costs money. Period. Don't undercut yourself - or our industry - by taking peanuts when you're worth the whole circus. Get ready, and let's start Surviving Design!

  • Be Real, Don't Steal
    2024/05/16

    Join professional interior designers Melissa Guerra, Timm Dolley, and Melody Smith as they discuss a huge elephant in the design community: Taking credit for other people's work. Architectural Digest received a huge backlash when interior designer Timothy Corrigan noted that one of his projects for a famous celebrity (in which he did a lot of the work) was eventually taken over by another designer who took credit for the entire job. Social media is even worse with burgeoning interior designers stealing images from various sources and posting said work as their own. It's a complicated industry, and plagiarism unfortunately occurs more often than not. What should you do if another designer steals your work? Who actually owns those images after all? Laugh and learn with us, and let's start Surviving Design!
