Over the years many people have asked me what is important to consider when you hire an Interior Designer. I hope that after reading my article below you will get the help you were looking for.
Always ask yourself the 5 questions contained in this article.
-- Are you looking to hire a designer because you feel you lack the experience when it comes to decorating or designing?
-- Have you made home purchases but they are still in the closet or garage because you don't know what to do with them or where to put anything?
-- Is your day just too busy and you can't find the time to even think about decorating or designing?
-- Are you having a hard time agreeing with your spouse or roommate when it comes to home or apartment decorating?
-- Are you not exactly sure of what your personal design is or even what type of design would favor the interior space in question?
If you've answered yes to any of the questions you read about in this article, then you may want to think about hiring an Interior Designer. Believe me, it'll be one of the best decisions you can make. They can help you immensely.
Interior Designers are skilled at designing interior spaces and space planning. They also have the expertise on form and function, balance and harmony, color concepts, lighting design, furniture selection and more. Why should you hire an Interior Designer? Simply because you may lack the necessary skills of design and secondly, mistakes will cost you money!
One key point to keep in mind is that all Designers are different with unique talents, education and experiences. Interestingly, if you asked five Interior Designs to render an opinion or a space-planning project, you will get five unique answers even though each will adhere to the core concepts of great design.
Many people have a natural talent for interior design. The difference in using the services of a Designer extends far beyond natural abilities. Sometimes there are architectural specifications that must be met in order to complete a project. At other times, there are elements that only an experienced Designer can perceive and bring into the project.
Many Designers will offer a free consultation to discuss your design project. At this informal meeting you will get to know about your Designer and the array of services he or she will offer to bring your interior space alive.
As a part of their consultation, they can provide you with an array of services that will bring your project alive. These services may include: space planning, color concepts, furniture selection and a number of key elements you need to harmoniously come together to accomplish your objectives.
A good characteristic to look for in a Designer is confidence in his or her abilities. Also a Designer should be a good listener to your desires and needs for your design project. State clearly what it is you are hoping for and your Designer will know exactly your personal style.
A good Designer will feel what you feel and understand your true desires it is not about how long a Designer has been practicing, but about being on the "same page" or connecting with your Designer.
Your Designer should connect with you. This "synergy" should exist between Designer and Client. Personalities do matter.
Interior Designers are also valuable because they have a variety of special vendors at their fingertips that can help get the job done. They know the "Who's Who" in the industry, who to go to, and more importantly, who not to go to. The consumer does not have this in-depth knowledge, so therefore this is invaluable.
You can ask for referrals from your Designer, although some may not give that information out due to client privacy.
Interior Designers work with many budgets and at many different price ranges. They usually charge by the hour and at prices as low as $50 dollars an hour to $300 dollars an hour.
