Many people mix up terms related to our field, and perhaps \u2018interior designer\u2019 and \u2018interior decorator\u2019 are two of the most terms that people often find them hard to differentiate or think they mean the same thing. However, this isn\u2019t the case; each one of them offers different services and concerned with different tasks. Here in this article, we will look at both terms and what makes them different.\n <\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Why does it happen? <\/p>\n
The differences between these two terms aren\u2019t the most obvious things around, so it\u2019s okay if you have assumptions that aren\u2019t very accurate. This mix-up happens because building a design is a process with so many aspects, like interior design, exterior design, and landscape design, for example. And while many prefer to task a single architect with these aspects, others prefer to go for specialists in every aspect to design it mainly. This division, in contrast with the more general term \u2018architect,\u2019 creates a little bit of confusion for non-specialists, who might not go into the details.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
What does each one do?<\/p>\n
Interior designers: Basically, interior designers\u2019 job consists of creating spaces that are beautiful, safe, practical, and functional. While making sure that these spaces serve their primary purpose in the meantime, and has what it takes for future growth or changes, and that covers: Lighting design, Materials, finishes & color, building systems and technologies, sustainable design, and project management. As a result, their job requires some sort of liaison with other designers that work on the other aspects of the building. <\/p>\n
Academically, interior designs usually hold qualifications like a degree or advanced diploma in interior design, covering every aspect of the layout, usage, and allocation of interior space.
\nInterior decorators, on the other hand, share many things with interior designers. However, the scope of their job doesn\u2019t include services installing, utility, and safety planning or moving walls. In fact, their job is more concerned with the style of space\u2019s occupants and capturing it perfectly. So, they are more likely to be concerned with decorating what\u2019s already been built.<\/p>\n
And while interior designers hold higher qualifications, interior decorators hold qualifications in interior decoration, which are usually diplomas.<\/p>\n
Ideally, both designers and decorators need to keep it close with their clients, come up with plans and drawings, and setting a budget then committing to it.
