On Thursday October 8, 2009, Noel Sior-Woodard, president of Woodard Interiors, Inc. – a commercial interior design firm located in Grafton, testified in front of the Joint Committee on State Administration and Regulatory Oversight at the State House in Boston in support of House Bill 2999 – an Act recognizing the profession of interior designers to bid on State contracts. Passage of this bill would allow professional interior designers in Massachusetts to bid on State contracts that are relevant to interior design services as the prime consultant. Currently all State interior design projects are awarded to architects and engineers – professions that are registered with the Commonwealth. Unlike the Federal government, Massachusetts does not recognize the profession of interior design. There is also currently another bill that has been filed during this legislative session in support of interior design legislation. HB 262 – an Act relative to the certification of interior designers - would allow professional interior designers to be registered with the Division of Professional Licensure.
