Most people are unaware that there is a difference between an interior designer and a decorator. Often times, the same people think they are capable of both roles without training nor resources. That gives interior designers a bad rap. There are times, however, when people confuse what designers and decorators do. Decorators are the professionals who finish interior spaces with accessories and furniture.
A designer is typically trained and licensed where as decorators do not always have this experience or credential. Interior designers can decorate, but decorators cannot design. They each have their own unique role in the renovation process.
When you want to hire a professional interior designer in New York or elsewhere it is good to know a clear difference between the two.
Interior Designers:
Interior designers are able to create an interior work or living space to accommodate a variety of needs. A designer can handle difficult arrangements and create functional spaces to enhance the occupant’s quality of life. Interior designers follow municipal building codes and often stick to environmental sustainability standards.
Interior designers research, analyze, plans and make socially and aesthetic functional interior layouts. They have analytical skills to plan institutional, retail, health-care and residential interiors. Modern advanced programs and technology enable interior designers to create virtual living spaces before contacting contractors.
Interior Decorators:
When you hire a design agency New York or elsewhere you would get the service of Interior designing as well as decoration. These designers make use of advanced computer programs and technologies to enable the designers to create virtual living areas before finalizing them for construction and development.
Decorating is like putting icing on the cake. Of course, the baker can do it, and he does it well. But the real professional is the cake decorator, who may not be the one to bake the cake, just to put that special cherry on top.
Decorating makes a space beautiful by the arrangement of wallpapers lamps, throw pillows and wall art. Decorators do not knock out walls or change the layout structurally for the interior space, though. Often designers do not either, they just conceptualize the idea and work with a contractor to make changes.
