Where can I find out what color paint Matt used on Top Design in his hotel suite?

Q. In Episode 8, Matt won the challenge by designing a luxury hotel suite with pale blue walls. Is there a way I can find out the exact brand of paint and paint color? I checked out BravoTV.com but couldn't find anything. Any help is appreciated! Thanks!

Anyone know a good website to get design templates from?

How do you become an interior designer who designs commercial spaces?

Q. I have a degree in marketing and I would love to design retail spaces, hotel lobbies, ect. I just don't know how to get started.

A. If you can go back to school to get an interior design degree, then do so. There may be schools in your area that will allow you to do your schooling at night. Take a look at this list http://interior-design-schools.us/search-by-school/

If going back to school is not an option for you, then build your portfolio. Note that it will be harded to land a commercial space client if you have no experience, no portfolio and no design background

Try these steps

- Find friends or acquaintances who are interested in redesigning their home space. This will give you a feel for working with clients, and allow you to build on your portfolio.

- Once you have built a solid portfolio, try to find employment with a design firm doing commercial spaces. This will allow you to get the inside knowledge of suppliers, contacts and even potential clients
