Interior Designer vs Product Designer: which pays more?
The median for Interior Designer is $79,000 per year (typically $65,030–$93,625), versus $175,000 for Product Designer ($142,895–$207,625). That puts Product Designer about 122% ahead at the median.
Both figures are computed live from active listings on JobsRadar and normalized to annualized USD, so Interior Designer and Product Designer are compared on equal terms regardless of the currency each role was originally posted in. Only roles that publish a salary range feed the medians; numbers refresh every few hours as new roles post and older ones close, so this comparison reflects the market right now rather than a fixed survey. Use it as a directional benchmark when weighing one path against the other.
