THANK YOU FOR SUPPORTING ME!!
Welcome to my life! I am 21 years old and living in Iowa working my dream job of an interior designer and documenting my life through RUclips. I am so excited to be starting this journey and to bring you along with me. Be sure to subscribe so you don't miss any of my videos!
Would love to see more interior design videos!!
More to come!
Thank you so much McKaykee , this helped me a lot.
You are so informative. I graduated FIDM with an interior design degree about 10 years ago and it's been a long time since I have worked on my portfolio. Even though I have been working in design for 10 years, this really helped me see what interviewers are looking at right now.
that’s great! thanks so much!
As a high school student this video is really helping me because I’ve done allot of interior projects and as I’m applying for colleges since I’m major in interior design this portfolio will help me get more opportunities 💕💕💕💕
This is really interesting, thanks for sharing this with us.
Glad you enjoyed it!
What an amazing portfolio.
I’m so glad I found your channel! Could you do videos on how to use revit and auto cad - I feel like most videos on RUclips are people that work in metric 😅
Hi! Great video, your portfolio is nice! I really appreciate how you critique your own portfolio as you have gotten more real life experience, the advice you provide is very relevant. Please keep the “real” Interior Design content videos coming! It would be very helpful, specially if you have Revit experience from the Interior Design perspective, there are not that many tutorials available geared to how Interior Designers use Revit . Like on how to work with architects’ linked models and how an interiors project is coordinated with other disciplines, or creating an interiors finishes only schedule, just a thought...or perhaps a plea! LOL. I graduated 12 years ago and my college was not even teaching Revit until a few year ago, so I am looking to grow beyond the walls, windows, and basic Revit rendering phase to continue my career as a commercial Interior Designer. All the best to you!
thanks for all the love and tips! I definitely have many videos planned for this ☺️
I LOVE YOUR PORTFOLIO OMGGG
thank you!
Loved this!!!
Thanks!
Thanks for sharing. This is really helpful!

I'm currently applying for Interior Design in London and this has really helped. Thank you :) x

@@jumihussain5494 I did not apply for any internships out of the us!
I’m thinking about applying for interior design in London too in 2022 but I’m not sure which uni in specific yet

Great video!! Thank you so much!
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you i need this
LOVE YOUR PORTFOLIO .
thank you!!
Love this video so much! I have a question on how you get the binding for your portfolio? Where did you purchase it and how did you punch the holes in the paper?
hey! I went to staples and got my professionally binded. I just told them what I wanted and they did it for me!
I like ur videos sooo much
thank you!! that means so much!
Hi new subscriber here! I loved how you organized it and how mutual your portfolio was. I am a high school senior and I want to go to a school for interior design and I have absolutely no support from family or friends and I was wondering if you can make a video for high school students going into college or maybe just give me some advice? Thank youuu! 💗
thanks for the support! I would say if you love it then who cares!!! I didn’t get a lot of support either but my family could tell that it was something I was passionate about so they are now super supportive ❤️
I just came across your channel and I’m in love with your videos! Quick question; I’m very interested in this and I’m in high school, what courses are best fit for this??
thank you soo much!! I would take a lot of the art courses offered to just get your foot in the door with art. Other than that I would see if your school offers an intro interior design course of some kind. I highly recommend some computer design classes that does marketing or some kind of graphical design to understand how to use the programs!
love your videos! do these projects you have to do in school are basically hypothetical? Like before you get an interior design jobs, you just do project work based on random assignments? I am just starting my interior design course so i'm super excited! thanks!
when you are in school they are typically hypothetical projects so that you understand how to form drawings and how to design. It's super exciting, it's worth all the work!
Thank you for the informative video. Though I am curious why you mention not colour rendering your elevations. Im in my 3rd year of persuing Interior Design in college, and Im looking around for more clarity on how to create my porfolio. And so far Ive seen elevations without rendering and a one next to it with rendering to get a better idea of how the materials and colours tie together.
Waiting for more content. :) xx
you should totally do a colored 3D rendering but I wouldn't do a colored elevation because that isn't the intent of elevations. those should be clean and give information!
@@McKayleePalmer okay yeh I get it. Thank you! :)
Hey, i came around this video and it spoke so much to me i am actually crying rn. I graduated from high school in 2020 and also thought of myself in a business kind of occupation so i started studying business management. But ever since my first class (microeconomics) i also felt totally outta place and ngl my world shattered bc of this (I have depression and a weak mind lol). Now i am trying to build myself up again and i was desperately looking for something that i really want to do with my life and something that i feel capable to do. And then this video was in my feed.. I feel more inspired then ever to pursue my dreams thank you so so much for this❤❤
Edit: sorry for my bad english, it's not my first language
Dude same. I have a thing for art but I can't improve due to tight money for materials. I'm in my senior high years studying Accountancy, Business and Management coz I I want to start my own business or maybe work in a bank or company. But after studying ABM I kinda realize financial stuff is not my thing and I became so worried of what to do with my life, became undecided on what college course to take.
@@ladybug5335 wow, i see. This must be tough too. I also try to remember that we are still young and our life isnt written down for us, so we still have plenty opportunities...And people here on youtube offer so much advice which also gives me alot of hope :) . I wish you all the best for 2021 and that you will succeed in whatever path you take!!
This comment means so much to me, thank you so much!! You are what keeps me going. Life will take you down many paths before you find the right one. There is no perfect way to do anything and it takes trial and error. Keep the positive thoughts and always work as hard as you can, you got this!!
@@McKayleePalmer Thak you so much for your kind words, i will keep them in my heart for motivation and inspiration😊 Now i obviously have to watch all your videos on that topic to learn and improve. Your content is amazing and i am very grateful for people like you!!
Keep it up 👍 nice video
thank you!
Thank you for this video it's really useful.
I have a few questions: Did you have any doubts in choosing this career path?
Is there anything you do not like about this job?
Are you happy with your job? ( this is a bit personal, you do not have to answer it if you do not want to).
i’ve always known that there is always going to be a need for designers but had doubts about the location I was choosing. I love my job so much and so glad I chose this path!
Hey! Mind if I answer as well? ♥
Did I have doubts in choosing this career path? : No. ... However it wasnt my first choice. I wanted to either Teach Elementary School or study Fashion Design & Fashion Merchandising / Fashion Business. I got a certificate in Child Development & instead of moving forward to get an Associate & Bachelor Degree in Child Development so that I can Teach. I always hear that Teachers don't get paid well, so that made me shift from studying a 9 - 5 type of job to going for something much bigger & that I can profit big time from. So I started going to Fashion School however I wanted to study at an University level & ended up opting in for something more affordable which was a SEWING CLASS. 😣🙄 Not at all what I wanted to study. ... & I stopped trying to purpose a Fashion Degree & started trying to think of ways to bypass school - which in Fashion YOU CAN DO. You dont NEED a degree ... So as I tried to figure out what I was going to do. Interior design was another interest I had. But didnt consider it a career, just an interest. But I started wanting to move towards Interior Design & come back or stop chasing Fashion based careers, no matter how dreamy & how much I love to look at & wear high fashion. So TODAY - here I am LOOKING FOR MY NEW OFFICE to work out of as an Interior Designer! & I HAVE NO DOUBT on where I have ended up. I LOVE it! :)
I dont have any complaints yet.
I am VERY HAPPY I found something that feels good to do. ♥
Thank you for this! It was very useful. I’m thinking on studying interior design but I am not good at drawing and making DIY and all that but I really like interior design, do you think this is a problem?
absolutely not!! drawing is something someone can learn really quickly. as for DIY you really don’t need any skill in that. interior designers typically don’t do a lot of DIY stuff for a job. that’s more people who do it for a hobby or interior decorators. If you have a passion for design I say DO IT!! 🤍
I have another question. Did you change any of the information you put in the resume section of your portfolio vs. your separate resume? Or is it like a repeat but different design? Maybe do a video on setting up a interior design resume and your example! Thank you so much!
I used the same layouts/colors/theme but just did vertical 8.5x11 paper!
Did your job teach your more about codes? I feel like I haven't learned anything
What software do you use for your renderings? Is that Revit as well? This looks awesome by the way!
it was either done in revit or sketchup! thank you!! 🤍
My professor recommend us to us 3d max and lumion
Hi new sub here and love your videos ! Very informative ..
I’m 12 pass student and I’m planning to take interior design 2 years course
Lil confused about the expenses
Can u please tell me max budget to study interior design?? Thank you 🙏🏻
ikimizde aynı meslek için uğraşıyoruz. sen bilgisayar programlarını öğrenerek üniversiteye hazırlanıyorsun ben paragraf çözerek. coğrafya kaderdir
Ic mimarliga girmek cok kolay. Cikmak daha zor.
I’m looking to be an interior decorator can you recommend any courses in the uk for it
I am a senior in high school and just last year I figured out I wanted to do interior design, I’m really stressing out about making a portfolio especially because I don’t have any school work to put in it. Do u have any advice?
most colleges will have you take required courses for the major before you are accepted into the program and in those classes you will create work to help you get into the program. then while you are in school you will create work that you will combine into a portfolio that will help you get a job after graduation. I would say don’t stress about that stuff right now! you will create lots of work to showcase during your college years!!
@@McKayleePalmer wait so does this mean that we'll have the projects for our portfolio while in college?
eyana a yes!!! you create projects in school that you put in your portfolio and that’s to get a job out of college! you do not need a portfolio to get into design school your first year! (for most schools at least, can’t say that for all schools!)
NEW subscriber here ♥️ Great video, thanks for sharing! I've recently started my own channel but have so much to learn! If you have any tricks or tips please let me know :)
Thank you!!
hi im going into my first year for int des in the fall, i was wondering which laptop u used for school?
I used a mac and always went to on campus labs to use the software for revit. if you get a pc laptop I recommend a dell!
McKaylee Palmer thank you so much !! 💗
Hii! I am sorry to bother but English isn’t my first language and around 16:00 I couldn’t really understand what you said about rendering, did you say we should never do renders on our portifolio? Thank you!!
SO SORRY!!! realized I misspoke! you should totally do renderings in your portfolio, it’s super important to do them!! I meant to say colored elevations, those should always be in black and white not color!
@@McKayleePalmer thank you so much for takings the time to answer, I am subscribing and truly believe your channel is going to be a great source of inspiration and education to me! Wish you all the sucess!
Mariana Vieira thank you so much for the support ❤️
What university did you go to? I’m graduating high school and interested in becoming an interior designer and I’m trying to find good colleges
that’s excited! I went to university of northern iowa!
Hey girl so Im currently in highschool doing my last year and wanna get into interior design but I didn’t take any of the requirements or pre rec as to the fact I’m just figuring out this is the career I wanna do. Do you have any advice? I feel stuck and not sure what to do
that’s totally normal to feel that way! I would suggest maybe doing a job shadow for a day at a residential or commercial interior/architecture firm and seeing if something stands out to you and then taking an intro course at college!
McKaylee Palmer I like that! I’ll look into it!!!
I may not know much so sorry if I sound dumb lol but I’m a freshman at a university right now but doesn’t look like they have interior design. But I want to look into it to see if I rlly like it without moving schools. I thought people go to a interior design school after getting a bachelors in something for some reason lol. I’m not sure how I do a portfolio like that if I don’t have any of the skill ?
I meant like a portfolio to get into interior design school
you don’t necessarily need a portfolio to get into school. typically you will do your first year of classes then apply and compile all of the projects you worked on to be interviewed. the portfolio is meant for after graduation and finding a job! I would recommend maybe doing a job shadow for a day at a residential interior design firm and then a commercial interior design firm or architecture firm and seeing if either of those spark your interest before changing your major completely or transferring to a new school!
You used already an existing template of Indesign for your portfolio? If you downloaded template from somewhere or anything, please name the sources or links for Indesign Interior Templates. If you had your own palette or the scheme please do give some tips on the same:)
I created my own portfolio and looked to issu.com for inspiration. All of my portfolio is original and the projects are all my work.
Hello! I am Simmi just 12year old so in 7th grade but I want to become an interior design could u plz tell how can I improve my creativity for designing.... Love from India
Hey Simmi! I would try and just draw whenever you have time! Look to pinterest, instagram and other social media for some inspiration. I also look at interior design magazines!
Tengo que aprender ingles para entender :(
Your prob not going to answer but I’m in 8th grade and I’m going into highschool. I am 99% sure I want to go into an interior design major. What should I do to early on so that way I can get into a good interior design college? Cause I’m clueless and I don’t know any good classes that are good for a college application or any after school activities or clubs I should take.
hey eva! you don’t necessarily need to take specific high school classes to get into a certain school besides the required curriculum (depending on where you live). if you school offers a graphic design course or any art classes I would take a bunch of those just to prepare yourself for what those classes will be like in college and to get a good knowledge of foundation set. being active in after school activities and clubs is more for getting scholarships and not so much getting into college. so make sure to apply to all and any scholarships that you can! being involved in clubs is always good for your own personal reasons to make you happy and for friendships and connections with others and is still highly encouraged when you’re in college. hope this helps! ❤️
Ok thank you so much. I’ve always been into art and design so like in my school we have Spanish in 8th and I ended up not taking it and taking art studio instead because I’m planning on taking AP Chinese since I’m already somewhat fluent. I’m already taking an ap class in 8th cause I got into algebra 1 and I’ve had straight As since 6th grade. I just have really high expectations for myself and I always like to have a plan and knowing exactly what I want just makes me feel better. I’ve been trying to watch as many videos on interior design because it’s one of my biggest passions and your videos help me a lot thank u🥰❤️❤️
I love that you are so motivated, keep it up! Also, thanks so much for the support it means everything to me :)
What is the paper size
A4 or A3 or some standard size
I did mine on an A4!
Hello makyalee palmer
