122\\ How New California Design Legislation Could Transform Interior Design Practices in 2025 With Genise Plessas

State laws often define the scope of practice, certification requirements, and licensing regulations for interior designers. Staying informed ensures you comply with these rules, allowing you to work legally and avoid fines or penalties.

In this episode, I have an insightful conversation with Genise Plessas, a seasoned interior designer and advocate for the profession in California. Genise delves into the challenges facing interior designers, particularly the proposed changes by IDEX that could create unnecessary barriers for both commercial and residential designers.

She shares valuable insights into the work of the California Legislative Coalition for Interior Designers (CLCID), a nonprofit organization dedicated to supporting and empowering individual designers.

She also reveals the resources every designer needs - a comprehensive guide on codes and regulations, as well as study materials to help you prepare for the IDEX exam.

Plus, hear her inspiring story of starting her design business, working internationally, and balancing creativity with technical know-how.

Whether you're a newbie dreaming of your first big project or a seasoned pro navigating new rules, this episode offers a wealth of information to help you stay informed and navigate the industry's ever-evolving landscape. Tune in now!
