The National Council for Interior Design Qualification defines Interior Design as a multi- faceted profession in which creative and technical solutions are applied within a structure to achieve a built interior environment.

That sounds serious.

Even more serious, perhaps, is the scope of services required of the interior designer: Safety is an essential element.

Safety.

The interior designer’s concepts must be safe, functional, aesthetically appropriate AND must meet all public health, safety and welfare requirements. So basically, these people are left and right brainers. Lucky for us! Imagine a world full of just left brain designers:

Blech.

Now, imagine a world of Jessica-brains:

Jessica Meidinger has passed her NCIDQ exam and is now a card-carrying, certified interior designer. Here is proof:

Because she is a left-brainer, she actually counted her study hours – 240 in 3 months. And because she didn’t think that was torture enough, she also trained for Grandma’s Marathon – 183 miles of running.

She wears that medal every day.
