BUILDING COMMUNITY IN DESIGN
The Business of Interiors is the UK’s first community built for Interior Designers and industry creatives founded by Rachel Usher.
Our platform is designed to inspire, educate and unite Interior Designers through our annual events, bi-weekly podcasts and individually tailored 1:1 coaching sessions.
Empowering Interior Designers to realise their personal definition of success because building a thriving and profitable design practice requires more than creative talent alone.
EVENTS
We recently hosted the Business of Interiors Community Summit 2024, a two-day event that brought together some of the most influential voices in the industry. Our panelists openly shared their experiences and strategies that have led them to meaningful success, delving into topics such as fee setting, brand building, luxury client acquisition, and succession planning. Attendees had the rare opportunity to engage in candid conversations that go beyond what’s available online, gaining firsthand insights and proven strategies to apply to their own businesses, empowering them to learn, grow, and thrive.
But perhaps most importantly, they became part of a community.
The Business of Interiors Community Summit 2025 will happen in June 2025 and is promised to be even bigger.
