An interior designer's best work is often measured by abstract standards. The designer's talent and skill can dazzle the eyes and win clients, but creative ability is not enough to ensure long-term success. The less glamorous side of interior design is one of negotiations, contracts, and finances. A designer ill-prepared to cope with the inevitable business and legal complications ultimately loses time and money, but now help is on the way. Attorney Tad Crawford and design business professional Eva Doman Bruck have teamed to provide interior designers with Business and Legal Forms for Interior Designers, a powerful new resource for building the the foundation for a successful design business.
