Background Information on Interior Designers Institute
Interior Designers
Institute is a private interior design college, which was
founded in 1984 in Corona del Mar, California. The steady
growth of the college can be attributed in part to its reputation
for excellence, the need for a high caliber private college
and its location in the heart of Orange County, California.
Orange County is
unique in terms of affluence, progressiveness and overall
acceptance of the importance of interior design. Design opportunities
abound in the area, which has a multitude of interior design
firms, as well as its own design center, Laguna Design Center.
It is also in close proximity to the Pacific Design Center,
one of the largest in the country. These factors have had
a profound influence in framing the Institute's progressive
approach to education and its job placement.

moved to larger facilities in Newport Beach, California, offering
additional classrooms and expanded student areas.
From the beginning, the
emphasis at the Institute has always been on high educational standards.
This was made possible by a faculty comprised of leaders in the
design field, progressive classes and placement services. The Institute
has maintained an atmosphere of personal attention. This standard
of excellence is the Institute's commitment to its current and future
students as well as to the design community.
