What Our Members Say:
Some of the most important things I get out of IDC are the support I receive from the members when the going gets tough. And you all know that there are days when you need a lift from those tougher days. It’s always good to know that we are not alone. The other is that I’ve met so many wonderful designers who have become very good friends.
And lastly, I feel that I’ve grown my practice exponentially from those members who are selfless in sharing their knowledge and experiences.
Thank you, Laurie. Thank you all.

Thank you, Laurie. Thank you all.
The level of knowledge, experience and resources held and shared by the members is nothing less than phenomenal, as is the openness and willingness to help, guide and teach each other.
All of these things makes this group of Interior Designers and related industries my “go-to” for business questions, sourcing product I haven’t found yet, general product info, recommendations, and sometimes just to vent off steam and frustration– or offer what I hope to be some insight or support to the group.
Thank you Laurie and all the IDC members.

Thank you Laurie and all the IDC members.
Through IDC I have met and formed invaluable relationships with both interior designers and brands/manufacturers who have both been integral in helping me to shape my business into what it is today. IDC is a safe space for industry professionals to exchange advice and experiences. The community keeps it’s members informed and always ahead of the curve. Thank you, Laurie for creating such a valuable go-to resource for the interior design community!
