Interior design is a serious matter. The room is being equipped for a long time, therefore, before repair or construction, it is necessary to take into account not only the availability and price of materials and furniture. A general sense of harmony and comfort should also be present in the room. Not everyone can independently think over all the details and take into account all the nuances, and then the question arises of how to find an interior designer.
Instructions
Step 1
Decide what result you want to get and evaluate whether you really need an interior designer or it will be enough to flip through special magazines on the interior. Consult with your builders, an experienced team often knows how to implement a particular design solution.
Step 2
Decide what is the determining factor for you: an exclusive interior by any means and means, or the price of the issue. Remember, no matter which designer you turn to, such work will not cost a penny, calculate your budget.
Step 3
Choose where you go for a design project: a well-known firm or a private designer. Keep in mind that many private designers, having worked for a certain time as staff members of a design firm and gaining experience, go on a "free float." Such private designers can guarantee a high level of work at a lower cost than the firm would ask.
Step 4
Contact your friends. If one of them used the services of an interior designer, you can not only take the contact phone number or the address of the master, but also see with your own eyes the final result of the designer's work in the apartment or office of friends.
Step 5
If you have no acquaintances in mind, search for an interior designer through advertisements in newspapers and on the Internet. The city telephone inquiry service can also provide a list of addresses and telephone numbers of city designers and design firms available in their database.
Step 6
When choosing a designer, consider their work experience first. Check out his portfolio - photos of completed projects. If possible, visit personally those objects, the design of which the specialist was engaged in, in order to assess the degree of his skill.
Step 7
Rate the person himself: he is pleasant to you or his manners cause negative emotions. First, you will have to communicate with him for some time, agree on details, discuss ideas. Secondly, if looking at the finished interior you will not admire it, but only remember how you disliked the designer, not a single even the most chic project will make you feel satisfied.
