Interior Design Studio
A self-paced program for interior designers looking to build, refine, and scale their business through thoughtful systems and operations.
Whether you are just starting out or already managing a growing studio, there comes a point where the structure behind the work becomes just as important as the work itself.
Early on, it can be difficult to know where to begin—what tools to use, how to price your services, or how to communicate professionally with clients. As the business grows, those same decisions become more complex, and often harder to manage without clear systems in place.
The Approach
Most design businesses reach a point where growth becomes difficult to manage.
Projects become more complex, communication becomes inconsistent, and internal processes are often built as needed rather than with intention. Over time, this leads to inefficiencies, missed opportunities, and unnecessary stress.
Many of these decisions are learned over time through experience. This program is designed to shorten that process.
The Interior Design Studio offers a clear look at how a design business can be structured and operated with more consistency, clarity, and control—without overcomplicating the work.
What's Covered
Inside the program, you’ll find a focused breakdown of the systems that support a well-run studio, including:
• How projects are organized and managed from start to finish
• How pricing, markups, and financial decisions are structured
• How client communication is handled across each phase
• How documentation, proposals, and contracts are developed
• How internal workflows are built to support growth
The program also covers:
• Portfolio development and positioning
• Marketing and visibility
• Tools, programs, and day-to-day workflows
• Construction documentation and details
• Working with contractors and vendors
• Building a team and company culture
Program Format
This is a fully self-paced program.
All material is available upon enrollment and can be revisited at any time.
About the Studio
The Interior Design Studio is built from the day-to-day operations of Mullen Design Co., reflecting the systems and practices used across a range of projects and clients.
The goal is not to provide a one-size-fits-all solution, but to offer a clear framework that can be adapted and applied to your own practice.
For designers looking to build a strong foundation—or bring more structure and intention to an existing business—this program serves as a reference point for what that can look like.
