Beyond the Surface: Understanding Interior Design

Interior design is often misunderstood as merely selecting paint colors and drapes. However, it involves much more complexity and depth. Let’s clarify the role and its significance in the design process.

The Role of the Architectural Designer

The architectural designer is responsible for crafting the architectural and structural elements of a building. This includes creating placeholders for components like cabinets, islands, appliances, bathroom and kitchen fixtures, and hardware. While we outline these elements, we typically do not specify the exact make, model, or finish.

Collaboration with Interior Design

Once the architectural intent is established, our interior design team steps in to specify each fixture and appliance with the chosen finishes. This process offers several benefits:

Accurate Estimation: It allows the construction team to provide a precise estimate for the project.

Visual Clarity: You get to see how all the products will look together upfront.

Efficient Execution: By visualizing everything as part of the original plan, we prevent delays and change orders during construction.
