When a person is planning interior work for their house, most of the time, it’s a new thing. The biggest issue to figure out is where to start. One must feel comfortable taking up the job of designing themselves. If experienced in the said work, it’s assured you will do a better job. If not, you definitely need Professional support from an Interior Designer.
In this article, we’ll lay out to you the process employed in Professional Interior Designing. Let’s jump right into your idea.
1. Convey and Hire
You will definitely have a brief idea or a rough concept for your design. The first thing to do while looking out for a professional Designer is to convey your idea and see it meet your expectations. If the vibes match, hire the designer to carry out the work.
2. Fixate on your requirement
Understanding your available area is key for further designing. It depends on the number of people in the house, their bedrooms, common areas, etc. Further, the area needs to be divided accordingly to fit individual needs.
Plan your needs with a clear vision and convey the thoughts to your hired Interior Designer who can develop concepts on your idea.
3. Assess your Budget
Understand that spending on your Interior Design is not an expense but an investment that will increase the value of the house. Allocate your budget for individual spaces in the home which will vary depending on furnishings, accessories, and the material.
4. Develop your Design
The key step in Interior Designing is Design Development. It is a mix of Interior Architecture and Creative thought processes. The process involves the creation of a Blueprint of your space using softwares.
When the work begins, these visuals will start to become a reality. Storeyboard Design uses softwares to give you personalized solutions for your space. The 3D visuals help you understand the utility and the room proportions.
5. Plumbing and Electrical
Planning your Electrical and Plumbing points will be the next step. Lighting plays a significant role in the Interior Designing Philosophy and it’ll be important to fixate on the electrical points. Plumbing is important to provide water supply to all corners of the home for different purposes.
6. Employ False Ceiling
Modern Interior Designing Techniques employ False Ceilings that can be easily molded to needs. Generally deployed a foot below the actual ceiling, it can house the electrical ducts and points. It not only hides the rough work but adds to the room’s design.
7. Flooring Material and Design
This process is a time-consuming task. This process is always budget dependent. Before installing the floor, you need to understand and feel different flooring surfaces. There are always pros and cons to different flooring materials. For example, the Bathroom Floor must be different than the ones in Hall and Bedroom with more slippery resistance.
8. Carpentry and Furniture
There are different types of Wood used in furniture. They all vary in different parameters such as hardness, resistance to rodents, cost, Lumber Quality, etc. Have a clear idea about the Furniture you would require. Wood is not only for Furniture, but wall mounts, wardrobes, kitchen storage, etc. There are additional materials such as laminate sheets that will play an important role in the furniture. Overall, Carpentry plays an important role in Interior Designing.
9. Color Palette for your Walls
Select colors that will go well with your furniture and lighting. There are different finishes that can make the walls more lovely. Selecting your colors and painting is an interesting aspect of the design process.
With even a small stencil finish, the walls get a new outlook.
10. Furnishings and Accessories
Accessories are an important part of Interior Designing while in the completion stage. They fill the empty walls and shelves with a fulfilled outlook. The same applies to the Plumbing fixtures as well. Ensure the accessories meet the design and color of your space.

Elements and Applications come last. Being heavy, it has to go at the end as they hinder easy work during other works. They include your furniture such as Sofa, Teapoy, Night Stands, Side stands, etc, and appliances such as Television, Sound Systems, etc.
