Trading Spaces is a show on TLC. In this show neighbors switch homes to re-decorate each others houses. They each get 3 days to re-design a room, $2,000, and a professional interior designer. Another popular show is Design Star on HGTV. This show is about designers competing against each other decorating rooms, there are 3 judges who give them challenges each week by the end of the week they eliminate one until there is only one person left.Interior Design magazine features amazing pictures and ideas of a home. It also has articles on trends and styles which people have problems with. The Home and Design magazine includes indoor designs, outdoor designs, builds and remodels, and product and luxury articles. This magazine is very helpful to people who don't know what to do. The Haute Living magazine focuses more on the "targeted towards those who desire—and have the means to experience—the finest things in life."(didn't say author??)
The Parade of Homes gives the people a chance to go around to see other well designed homes, that the designers have designed. You don't just go to look at the interior designing, you can also look at the landscaping trends. The parade of homes started about 60 years ago. The builders built and furnished the new home with all of the latest ideas and construction processes. So therefore you can really go anywhere to get ideas on decorating your own place, from television shows, magazines and even take tours at the Parade of Homes.
