Interior Design is a Moral Responsibility!

I know! a lot of people are going to think that I am crazy for saying this, but I really believe it to be true. A moral responsibility is a duty that one that you feel you ought to perform, even though there is no legal obligation to do so. In my mind, there is no doubt that interior design falls into that definition.Let me share a story with you of a home we did a year or two ago for a charity in Texas, the single mom had fallen on hard times, was in and out of shelters and struggling to look after her kids. We worked with some local agencies and decorated a home that was found for them. Yes, it was a nice thing to be a part of, but the ramifications are huge.

For the first time, the boy was able to invite friends over for a playdate with pride because there was dedicated space for him and a clean and tidy room.These things are not niceties, they are building blocks in peoples lives that can have effects for generations. These kids now grow up knowing what a family home should feel like, so when they have kids they know what to model their own home on. So when we as designers create spaces for our clients we aren't just making pretty rooms, we are creating backdrops upon which people project their lives. If that's not a moral responsibility to do our best I am not sure what would be.
