The ASID offices will be closed on Tuesday, Nov. 11, in observance of Veteran's Day. We thank you for your understanding.
We all remember graduating from college. The future is bright...and a little scary. But, as time goes by and you become a seasoned professional, it's easy to feel far removed from the newest class of interior designers. We make a lot of assumptions about what students are looking for in a job, a mentor, and how they plan to change the industry.
We are putting these assumptions to bed. At SCALE: The ASID National Student Summit, I interviewed a handful of students about their hopes and fears for their first job, their first boss, and the industry. What I found is there's a lot we can learn from the next generation of interior designers.
