Involving a Designer at the beginning of a project is essential. This approach ensures that every aspect is thoughtfully planned rather than treated as an afterthought. Intentional interior design is key to a successful project.
At the initial stage of the interior design process, Designers create and refine interior floor plans, interior elevations, custom millwork designs, as well as finish and lighting selections. Once the client approves, the plans and selections are then communicated to the contractor or builder.
Besides making sure the project aligns with your requirements, a Designer alleviates decision-making burdens. We recognize that time is precious, which is why we undertake the complex and often labor-intensive task of navigating these decisions on your behalf.
Designers possess insights into construction practices enabling us to effectively liaise with contractors and subcontractors engaged in the work. Including a Designer helps eliminate potential misunderstandings between clients and builders while ensuring we convey our interior design vision clearly to all parties involved.
Below are some responsibilities a Designer will handle throughout both the interior design and construction phases:
1. Spatial Planning
2. Developing Interior Design Concepts
3. Creating Floor Plans and Interior Elevations
4. Designing and Creating Elevation Drawings for Custom Cabinetry, Built-Ins, Window Placement, Etc.
5. Selecting Finishes and Preparing Specification Documents for the Contractor or Builder
6. Choosing Lighting Fixtures Along with Formulating Electrical and Lighting Plans
7. Producing 3D Renderings & Animations
8. Gathering Estimates from Tradespeople and Suppliers
9. Project Management
By hiring and collaborating with a Designer at an early phase of your project journey, you can avoid extra expenses and watch the project come together seamlessly.
