IDS Palm Springs Chapter

BUILDING RELATIONSHIPS IN THE BUSINESS OF DESIGN One of the country's largest design organizations dedicated to serving the residential interior design industry, IDS embraces four core values including professionalism, community, influence and growth. We are a group of like-minded professionals who are interested in networking, information sharing, and continued education. Our local IDS Chapter offers its members a PLACE TO BELONG within a supportive design community with opportunities for professional development. The INTERIOR DESIGN SOCIETY is an independent national association of professional interior design ENTREPRENEURS focused on helping our members grow their businesses, develop their talents, inspire each other, and impact their communities. The IDS National headquarters is located in High Point, NC, the world's home furnishings capital. Founded in 1973 by the National Home Furnishings Association (NHFA) to support interior designers based within furniture stores, the Interior Design Society has long since expanded its FOCUS to provide support to professional interior design entrepreneurs nationwide. To be eligible to join and be a member of our LOCAL IDS Palm Springs Chapter, you must also have an IDS national membership that is current and in good standing. Our local annual dues are $75.00 which help fund our operating expenses.
