4 Ways to Evaluate How Your Interior Design Work Is Communicated Online
In interior design, how your work is presented can profoundly shape the trajectory of your practice. Exceptional projects deserve thoughtful visibility, yet translating your vision into a narrative that resonates with clients, collaborators, and editors can be challenging.

Over the years, photographing projects like ASH STREET: Honoring History, Elevating Design (featured in Farrington Lane) and being recognized in Magnolia Journal, I’ve observed how subtle adjustments in presentation can make a meaningful difference in how work is perceived.
A key part of this process involves understanding four essential principles of professional presentation:
Portfolio Curation: How you organize and display your work communicates your design perspective. Presenting projects cohesively, highlighting both individual details and the overall vision, allows clients, collaborators, and editors to understand your creative approach at a glance. A well-curated portfolio acts as a narrative, showing not just what you do, but how you think.
Editorial Positioning: Editorial visibility doesn’t happen by chance. Knowing how to frame your work for potential media features—including selecting the right projects, angles, and stories—can open opportunities for exposure that elevates your professional profile. Framing your work with an editorial mindset ensures it resonates with the right audience.
Subtle Marketing Strategies: Sharing your work effectively isn’t about over-promotion—it’s about clarity and intention. Understanding how to highlight your strengths while maintaining authenticity helps attract ideal clients and collaborators naturally. Marketing, when done thoughtfully, builds trust and demonstrates expertise without feeling forced.
Brand Refinement: Every touchpoint, from social media to proposals, contributes to how your brand is perceived. Ensuring consistency across platforms and materials reinforces your identity as a designer and creates a cohesive narrative that people remember.

Understanding and applying these principles can transform not only how your portfolio is seen but also how your projects are experienced by others. Even small, thoughtful adjustments in presentation, framing, and narrative can make a significant impact on client and editor engagement.
If you want to apply these concepts directly to your own work, the Digital Marketing Bundle offers a clear, structured way to do so. It combines strategic guidance with practical tools designed to help you review your portfolio, refine your marketing narrative, and identify opportunities for stronger visibility and editorial positioning.
Rather than guessing what to post or promote, this bundle helps you build a marketing system you can return to—one that supports consistent, confident decision-making as your work evolves.
