“Re-Design Your Path to Success" was the motto for the ASID Oregon Fall Conference held October 7-8, 2011 at a Mountain Resort in Welches. The Conference allowed ASID members to connect with IDC-Oregon, who had a table at the event.
Conference attendees were able to ask IDC-Oregon questions about legislation and how they could get involved. IDC-Oregon President Alicia Snyder-Carlson explains how licensing will benefit commercial interior design businesses, “Licensing is a tool for every designer's success. A license will expand business opportunities for designers in the commercial design field." ASID members responded and showed their support in IDC-Oregon’s efforts.
ASID member, Heather Woods, supports legislation; “Alicia and Lynne provided a concise and informative introduction and update on the activities of IDC-Oregon at the 2011 ASID Fall Conference. I support the need for legislation in the interior design industry to qualify designers who affect the health, safety and welfare of the public.”
Timberline lodge was the perfect setting for the conference which allowed designers, vendors and other members in the industry to re-connect. IDC-Oregon Vice President, Lynne Dewhurst, confirmed the success of the event: “The ASID conference was a fantastic experience. The speakers were informative and the topics were educational. We had several people express interest in IDC-Oregon and we're looking forward to working more with ASID in the future.”
