Secrets of an Interior Designer revealed

For my online course I interviewed countless experts in their field. One of them was an interior designer from Finland. To the question β€œHow does an Interior Designer work”, she answered the following:

β€œInterior Design is all about creating a functional space that is safe and promotes ones well being. As a designer I make a lot of drawings, 3D adaptations and compose documents.

Me and my team always follow certain steps when starting a project. It goes like this:

πŸ• We interview the client so we know exactly what they want. We ask them all kinds of questions about their dreams, their ideas and their challenges.

πŸ•‘ With the whole team we start brainstorming and come up with crazy ideas. Then we narrow them down into smaller ideas.

πŸ•’ Based on those ideas we create 2 moodboards with different concepts. Within the moodboards we focus on atmosphere, colors and materials.

πŸ•“ The client decides which moodboard they like best. Based on that decision we create a 3D model for the space.

πŸ•” After that we start making drawings for the floor-, lightning- and furniture plan.

πŸ•• The last step is the execution. This is when the concept and moodboard come to life!”
