Under current law, a person who satisfies certain requirements may register as a Wisconsin registered interior designer and use the title “Wisconsin registered interior designer.” Current law also requires a Wisconsin registered interior designer to impress his or her seal or stamp on interior technical submissions that are submitted for an interior alteration or interior construction project, and if a city, village, town, or county requires a seal or stamp on interior technical submissions that are submitted for such a project, the city, village, town, or county must accept interior technical submissions impressed with the seal or stamp of a Wisconsin registered interior designer.
