What is Interior Decorating?

There’s always been a common misconception that the industry hasn’t been so concise on explaining. Interior decorating isn’t just picking out some furniture that contrasts another piece. It comes down to so much more, that calling it simple “designing” is an oversimplification. It’s knowing when that bright yellow seat will blend, what sort of brick veneer can really highlight a room or wall-mounted TV. Doing a black and white theme in a room sounds simple until you find that some surface is absorbing too much light while others look dull. Interior designers work to “pull it off”, exerting effort in making a room convey the intended message whether it’s playful, cozy, rustic, modern, or traditional. There are so many aspects to take into consideration like making each room subtly flow or little custom details that just perfect the look, like painted drawers in a white dresser. The industry goes far beyond the minimalist designs you see most and an interior designer’s goal is to give you space you actually feel is your own. Take these things into consideration with your next project, sometimes you might have everything picked out just how you want, but the layout just doesn’t feel right. Interior designers work solely to make it all work, to make the perfect living space.
