Why use an Interior Designer and what do they do?

The interior designer is responsible for identifying a problem within a space and develop a creative solution and scheme to solve those problems through design strategy. This will usually involve a process of research, concept development, developed design and detail and a final presentation of the scheme.

The interior designer will take a whole view approach to solving spatial issues as well as enhancing the aesthetic through creative design solutions.

“Interior design is about so much more than ‘what looks right’. It is about taking a holistic view of the way individuals use and enjoy the spaces that they inhabit”
The Fundamentals of Interior Design

An Interior Designer will:

• • advise on internal layout and configurations (spatial design)
  • provide concept design into developed designs (concept design)
  • provide 2d & 3d drawings, mood and material boards for visualisation (developed design)
  • provide a ‘shopping list’ of items to complete the final designed (final design)
  • liaise with your builders (project management)
  • liaise with trades specialists (project management)

Why use and Interior Designer?

In the same way you might feel confident to trim your hair, cutting a whole new style might be beyond you. Similarly, for interior design often people feel they can make decisions at a smaller level or have lots of ideas but knowing how to execute them can feel very overwhelming. A good interior designer is trained to bring all of the decisions and elements together into one harmonious package. Put simply, we think of everything. We pour over the detail so you don’t have to. We help release an interiors potential and take you through the steps to achieve it. 

Designers also benefit from trade discounts with most brands across the board which means often your investment into a designer can be offset against trade savings.
