Welcome to King Concept Community!
Welcome to King Concept Community - our new bi-weekly blog! My name is Monica King and I am the owner behind King Concept Interiors. I am SO THRILLED for you to be here. I have wanted to start a blog for quite a while now, and I am finally dedicating the time to creating a blog, as an extension of King Concept Interiors.
King Concept Community is a space where I will be chatting about all things interior design, business, and motherhood-related. My main goal for creating this blog is I wanted to create a space to create a sense of community, and relatability as well as get to know me a little more on a personal level. The interior design world is super unique and I am very proud to be a part of this creative community. My journey has been unique, and I am happy to share with you what it’s truly like to be an interior designer.
BEHIND THE DESIGN:
“Behind the Design” will feature exclusive content from existing design projects. I will be revealing real and raw behind the scenes updates on all of my existing projects. Oftentimes, people think that interior design is just fun and glamorous and that is 100% just not the case. There is so much that goes on behind the scenes before a project gets completed. As designers, we face many different challenges that we must navigate through. We have to pivot to last-minute change requests quickly, manage inventory delays, and many other challenges along the way! I am eager to dive into a few of my existing projects and elaborate on the leaps and bounds I have had to face along the way.
BUSINESS, TRENDS, TIPS & TRICKS:
This blog will also be covering all things business-related including, trend updates, as well as tips & tricks I have learned. I get so many questions on not only design tips & tricks but also the tools and software I use to run my business.
Fun fact, I did not go to school for interior design. It was in my first internship, post-college, that I discovered my true passion for interior design. With that being said, a lot of the tools and software I currently use have been self-taught. When I first started my business I was not truly equipped with how to create floor plans and 3D renderings. I’m always looking for ways to optimize my business and provide the best value to my clients. I hope to create different quick reference guides you can follow and use.
MOMPRENEUR LIFE:
Being a mompreneur comes with its own set of unique challenges. My main goal with this topic is to dive into some productivity strategies for mompreneurs to help streamline your business while ensuring you remain engaged with your family. One of the main reasons I created King Concept Interiors was not only to pursue my passions but to be able to raise my children and enjoy the flexibility of doing both. I have worked corporate jobs for many years and I wanted to ensure I was heavily involved in my little one’s lives from the very beginning.
I am very much a person who values a healthy work-life balance. I think as entrepreneurs we have been trained to think that we must be “always on” working 24/7 or always available. I am here to pave the way for you so that you can create a healthy work-life balance AND still thrive in your business.
I hope you are just as excited as I am about King Concepts Community! Even though the majority of the time my hands are quite full, I am eager to share this platform and create a true sense of community. Stay tuned in 2 weeks for our next blog post!
XOXO - Monica King of King Concept Interiors
