Big or small, local and regional companies make an enormous contribution to the Interior Design Society. With a trading area of generally within 100 miles of their place of business, Affiliate Partners are able to have frequent contact with IDS designers, and the connection can truly be a mix of business and pleasure. Local chapter meetings and events are a great place for our Affiliate Partners to get to know designers, and vice versa.
