Abstract	We present here a current snapshot of the Interaction Region (IR) design for the Future Circular Collider electron-positron accelerator (FCC-ee) [1]. We introduce the IR design based on accelerator requirements and describe the additional details important in the study of backgrounds in the detector as well as to the needs of the detector. The requirements of the detector and of the accelerator at the collision point together make the IR one of the more challenging parts of the overall design. The challenge is to maximize performance in terms of integrated luminosity and minimize beam related backgrounds for the experiments. This includes minimizing synchrotron radiation in the IR.
