The home design profession became well-versed after World War II.
From the 1950s onwards, paying for the home increased. Interior design courses were established, requiring the publication of textbooks and reference sources. Historical accounts of interior designers and firms distinct on the decorative arts specialists were delivered.
Organisations to education, qualifications, standards and practices, etc. were established for that profession.[18]
Interior design had been seen as playing an extra role to architecture. It also has numerous connections with other design disciplines, between work of architects, industrial designers, engineers, builders, craftsmen, etc. For these reasons, the us govenment of home design standards and qualifications was often included in other professional organisations that involved design.[18] Organisations including the Chartered Society of Designers, established in the UK in 1986, plus the American Designers Institute, founded in 1938, governed various parts of design.
It has not been until later that specific representation to the interior design profession was made. The US National Society of Interior Designers was established in 1957, during the UK the Interior Decorators and Designers Association was established in 1966. Across Europe, other organisations such as The Finnish Association of Interior Architects (1949) were being established plus in 1994 the International Interior Design Association was founded.[18]
Ellen Mazur Thomson, author of Origins of Graphic Design in America (1997), determined that professional status is achieved through education, self-imposed standards and professional gate-keeping organizations.[18] Having achieved this, interior planning became an established profession.
