- Budget and accommodations. Create a budget that includes living expenses like groceries, utilities, transportation, and housing options that align with your financial and lifestyle needs.
Things to Know
When considering an interior design internship abroad, there are cultural immersion and building a unique portfolio. Here’s what you need to know to make the most of your international experience.
- Cultural exposure. Working abroad allows you to explore diverse design aesthetics, materials, and techniques unique to each location.
- Language barriers. While many design firms operate in English, learning basic local phrases can enhance your experience.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you want to intern at home or abroad? Once you decide, make sure you have a strong CV or resume with relevant experience before applying to opportunities. You’ll also need a well-written cover letter. Consider reaching out to any reliable references who can vouch for you.
Interns will work on tasks designed to help them learn. These duties include creating design concepts and online models, assisting with client meetings, and researching materials and furniture.
Not necessarily, but it depends on what your goals are. If you want to get your foot in the door at a specific company, an internship that provides proven experience is invaluable on your resume. If you hope to work independently with your own clients, it’s up to you whether or not an internship would be helpful.
Doing an interior design internship abroad will introduce you to the day-to-day work done by interior designers. It’ll help you understand more about what your career should look like, as well as help you explore the profession. You’ll make new contacts, expand your network, and be able to more effectively set career goals for yourself.
