Interior Design Billings On The Rise

Pages from ASID-IDBI-First-Quarter-Report-2014A recent article on editoratlarge.com recapped figures and findings from the American Society of Interior Designers’ (ASID) Interior Design Billings Index (IDBI) and the news is good!   The story reported on findings from the May edition of IDBI indicating that the recent slowing of the U.S. economy has not impaired the design sector, which came in at the highest it’s been since late 2010.

The story quoted Randy Fiser, CEO of ASID, saying “This is exciting news for designers across the country, as well as their clients. I believe this strong showing reflects a rise in the public’s awareness that professionally sourced, research-based interior design can improve our everyday lives. Changes in the design of hospitals, schools, homes, workplaces and other spaces in which we spend extended time can make us healthier, safer and happier. Research from several institutions, including ASID, has proven this to be true”

Editoratlarge.com reported that the May ASID IDBI of 65.9 is up sharply from 56 in April  — reflecting growing revenues. The uptick is evident in residential and public construction spending and paralleled April’s Census release on construction spending.  What’s more, all regions of the country showed growth and the near-term outlook is for steady gains.
