We’ve scoured the net to find and list the sites we know and love. Some you already know, some you will love once you see them for the first time. Either way enjoy the depth and variety of the information on our industry and don’t forget to see which ones are voted as the ‘best’ at the end of this article – you can vote for your favourite too.
These are all sites that might be useful for interior designers rather than ones created by interior designers (or their suppliers) to promote their business. Maybe they provide a nice showcase or perhaps just a tad of inspiration in a seemingly never-ending sea of banality. Enjoy!

Hi Nathalie,
would you consider adding my site to your list. My site is http://www.the-interiordesign.com/en/.
TID comes from the idea of a group of passionate young people and designers, whose aim is to individuate and show the huge value of this work, sometimes underestimated. Our objective is the realization of a network where ideas can freely flow into design’s world so that demand and supply can merge together in a simpler and effective way.
Thanks!
Francesco
