What is APID
The Association of Professional Interior Designers (APID) is the only professional membership organization representing the interior design industry across the Gulf region.


APID, as member of the International Federation of Interior Designers/Architects, is committed to the global advancement of the interiors community. Upholding the highest standards and best practice in Interior Design, APID attests to the qualifications of its professional members by issuing the certificate of membership.
Individual interior designers, design consultancies and industry suppliers can become regular members of the association. APID serves its members by providing a platform between professionals and its partners in academia, government and the media to exchange ideas, improve standards, share best practice and raise awareness on issues of concern to the interior design profession.
Since 2005, APID has been providing its members with learning opportunities through a Seminar Series and with occasions to interact and network during regular monthly gatherings that bring inspirational speakers and innovative ideas to the community.
APID memberships can be as an individual Professional, Associate or Allied Member. We also have Student Membership or the opportunity to form a Student Chapter at your University. Interior Design Companies can gain visibility for their business and suppliers and fit-out contractors can join APID as Industry members of the Association.
