An interior designer works with clients to create interior design schemes for homes and businesses.
Interior designers need to be exacting with meticulous attention to detail and an obvious creative flair alongside a natural love of interiors. Often designers work with large budgets as part of an overall restoration project or may find themselves employed to create a look and feel for a new bar, club or restaurant.
People looking to recruit a permanent in-house interior designer such as a large architectural design business will be looking for a person who can demonstrate an impressive cross range of project work with a stand out portfolio of visual work.
You can study interior design at degree level and specialised accredited interior design courses are available across the country. An interior designer will need a good sense of maths and spatial awareness as well as an innately creative mind.
Interior design is much more than just deciding on fabrics and colour schemes. A commercially aware Interior Design will demonstrate to recruiters that they understand the importance of creating a look and feel for businesses which matches their key objectives as well as being able to understand and lead a detailed briefing process.
