    There should be some kind of class teaching you how to do different styles from Modern, traditional, boho, farmhouse, modern farmhouse, eclectic, boho glam and transitional. So I'm hoping that there are some books teaching you to Styles and textures and mixing of different colors

    There are plenty of classes,which is why my pointer of continuing your education matters. Being born with a natural talent is great, but going deeper to grow is essential.

    Honestly, that will be something you and your client discuss. You can help them pick the flooring, mirrors, etc. Show them renderings or boards and samples to how it will look. Their hiring you for your eye! But I would encourage them to find a contractor for the install and ensure them that you all are separate entities, for legal reasons - unless you are connected to the contractors and be sure your contract is very specific to protect you.

    Yes! Not necessarily a pre-paid card but I have a separate client account. After consulting with them to see what their budget may be.. we go from there. So if they say, " I can spend 1k", that is transferred to the client account and I normally give them a client folder. This is were I put the contract, welcome letter, receipts.. etc. and sorry I do not know a black architecture company.

Check a school you may be interested in and see if you're wanting to go for you associates or your bachelors- then look to see what they're asking. My path is a little different, seeing that I was a human services major first.
