How to collaborate with a designer
Creating an interior from scratch is a complex, painstaking and very lengthy process. This statement is especially true for people who have no idea what the work of a designer generally includes. So, if you have a strong desire to see your interior in a particular style (for example, Provence, country, eco style), then it would be better for you to turn to a professional. But just turning to him is not enough - you also need to be able to convey your wishes to him.
Successful cooperation with the professional designersdesigner will allow you not only to create an interior in a certain style. As a very pleasant bonus, you get an interior that will fully comply with your ideas about the ideal interior. This is interesting not only for you, but also for the designer himself, as he will receive an original and individual project in his portfolio. But what do you need to know in order to find a common language with a designer?
Don't skimp on the details
When discussing the nuances, feel free to talk in detail about what you would like to see in the interior. What feelings should it evoke in you - peace, tranquility, or, conversely, an increase in energy and a desire for action. Tell us about your favorite colors and their combinations. Do not be too lazy to search the Internet for photos of interiors that you like or in which you like some elements. For example, if you want some kind of special bed in the bedroom, then it is better to find a suitable photo than to explain on your fingers.
Listen to recommendations
When you approach a professional designer, you are looking to temporarily gain experience in that particular area. Therefore, in some moments your opinions with him may not converge. But you don’t need to immediately reject his remarks with anger and blame him, try to listen. Often designers talk about fairly rational things. For example, if you really love red and want your living room only in red, and the designer claims that you can’t stand it in such quantities, then it’s better to really listen.
Furniture selection
If the designer already has extensive experience in work, then he may well offer you familiar companies that repair or create and sell furniture. You should not think that he is trying to earn even more money from you. Often, if someone specific is recommended to you, it means that the designer has already collaborated with these people and was satisfied with the cooperation - the tiles in the bathroom will be laid well, the wallpaper will be pasted directly.
It is especially good if you can cooperate with companies that offer both furniture and designer services, for example, company «Smart Space». So the implementation of the interior will be many times faster.
