Working as an interior designer in France

Search for 'Architecte d'intérieur', 'Décorateur d'intérieur' for decoration-focused roles and 'Concepteur d'espaces' in retail. Unlike 'architecte', the title is not legally protected, but most employers expect at least a Bac+3, often a five-year diploma from schools such as the École Boulle, ENSAAMA, Camondo or a CFAI-accredited school. Interior designers can renovate without an architect as long as the works do not require a building permit that must be signed by a registered architect. Working on shops, restaurants and offices means applying ERP rules on fire safety and accessibility. Freelancers need professional liability insurance before supervising works.
