WHY YOU SHOULD HIRE AN INTERIOR DESIGNER

I had an intruiging conversation with a friend some days ago and it inspired me to do this write up. we talk about everything but somehow,we never seemed to get to this but on this day,we did...our argument started with his not seeing a reason to hire an interior designer for his new apartment. i was one of his best friends and might not have charged him beyond peanuts for my services but then,he refused saying he'd rather travel to buy furniture and accessories and place them by himself. i was dumbfounded!
 A designer's place goes beyond ''basic'' as you may conclude. Here are some of the questions i'll like to ask you before telling you why designers should help.
When you look at fabrics and paint, are there so many choices that you just don't know where to start?
Did you start to redecorate your room and buy a few nice pieces, but just don't know what to do with them?
Have you seen pictures in magazines of the look you want but don't know how to make it happen in your home?
Are you and your patner having trouble agreeing on what to do?
Have you bought pieces through the years but don't know how to make them work together?
Do you own a house with character?
Are you finally at the stage where you want to coordinate the colors and style of your whole home but don't know how to do it without having it seem boring?
Do you want to do some major renovation involving moving walls or lighting fixtures?
Do you have more money now and want to have your home reflect your step up in life?
Have the kids moved out and you'll be using your home more for business entertaining and need a more formal look that you're comfortable with?
Do you need work done but don't know any qualified workmen to do it?
Do you want someone else to hassle with ordering and installing ?
Are you inspired by designs in hotels and other fun places around the world?
Do you want your home to be "one-of-a-kind," unlike anything you've seen before?
Do you have good taste but need someone else to put it together?
Does it seem to you like all the stores have the same things and you want something unique?
Do you have a particular look in mind but don't know how to achieve it?
Do you have architectural plans for a new house but want a pro to confirm that everything will look right?


WHAT DESIGNERS WILL DO FOR YOU

  • On your own, you are likely to make costly mistakes. With a designer, you can avoid these mistakes, saving you not only money but having to live with a badly done job.
  • They know just where to place wall hangings and other accessories. Designers know about tone and texture balance. They know fabrics that can work just by their weight
  • It’s their job to be creative. Designers understand the trend in design. They can help you capitalize what’s hot right now without putting you at risk of having a dated look in a couple years.
  • Its not the first time Designers are professionally trained in all aspects of interior design and know how it works. You may be fantastic with color, but how about space planning? Scale? Patterns?  Lighting? Flooring? Accessorizing? Pulling it all together to create that final look you desire.
  • Project Management; Whether a homeowner desires a few new accessories or an entire kitchen renovation, alot of time and effort is needed for project managent.
  • Designers create and work within a budget. (most of the time) A good and experienced Designer will work within your budget (and/or tell you up front if it is/isn’t possible within your budget) and make a plan before anything is paid for.
