Yes there is a difference between the two. Interior Decorators focus on the furnishing and beautifying of a space that already exists, creating cosmetic changes to your interiors. Interior Designers, come in with a broader perspective and apply their knowledge of the technical aspects
of design including space planning, knowledge of building codes, fire safety regulations, environmentally sustainable design and accessibility standards in addition to the above.

Interior Design is everywhere we look these days, from the thousands of home magazines available, to the various TV programs available for access, its no wonder people are confused!
The media has done a fantastic job at blurring the difference between design and decoration, not to mention all these unrealistic design TV shows that focus on residential design, so when I tell people that I am an interior designer, they automatically think I make homes beautiful. I’m not saying I don’t do this, but there is SO much more to it, than deciding which scatter cushions to select!

• Interior decoration is the furnishing and beautifying of a space that already exists.
• Interior design involves creating these spaces consideration of human interaction and behavior.
• Interior designers usually hold a bachelor’s degree or higher qualification and have an extensive knowledge of building codes, fire safety regulations and accessibility standards.
  Product and material knowledge is also crucial in designing a space and the fitment of the same is also based on many variables.
• Interior designers further have the additional responsibility for ensuring adherence to sustainable design practices, ensuring products recommended are the best use of Earth’s resources.
• Interior designers love what they do. From space planning to problem solving, selection of beautiful products and relationship building, seeing people enjoying the spaces created by them is truly rewarding experience and they wouldn’t have it any other way.
• So, contrary to what you might read in magazines or watch on TV, interior design is much more than picking paint colours and rearranging furniture!

Generally, it is best to meet the interior designer on site so that they can get a feel for the space and you can talk through all your ideas with them. But if that doesn’t suit you, you can visit them at their office office as well and also get an idea of the kind of products they have available – even a catch up at your local coffee shop is as good a place as any!

Prior to your initial meeting, it will be great if you have the following things prepared (but not essential):

• Your idea of how the space should look – basic theme, essence and style that you seek
• Any drawings/sketches you have prepared
• Company style/branding guidelines (in case of corporate)
• Any existing AutoCAD files and plans (including any existing electrical, mechanical,structural & hydraulic designs)
• An idea of your budget (a ballpark figure)
• An approximate timeframe for the project completion

The first step is to define the project. –Typicallydefine the basis essence and underlying theme that the space shoud reflect. For example – in the case of a corporate, the need might be a design that reflects the Company and its philosophy.
Following this, the interior designer will do some research while considering variables such as needs, wishes, requirements, limitations and dislikes. The interior designer will also like to chat with the end users to understand the duties and day-to- day processes. A thorough inspection of the site will also be carried out, which may include taking measurements and photos. The interior designer may also do additional research in relation to the site, which may influence the design.
The next step for the interior designer is to brainstorm and formulate the preliminary design ideas. They may prepare flow diagrams, floor plan layouts, sketches and imagery and presentit to you for discussion and feedback. This is known as the schematic or conceptual design.

Depending on the size and scope of the project, a designer would typically charge you a percentage of the amount on the project scope.If you engage your interior designer on a fixed price quote, typically they will schedule payments progress wise as each phase of the design process is completed.

Depending on your requirement we will provide a tour of the model apartment to show you the relevant project where you can compare the aesthetics easily and understand the material and product specifications used and the budget estimate for designing a similar space.

We use the materials with ISO Standards where design meets the quality and design. We seek nothing but the best for our customers.
