If only 10% of homes are designed by architects then it's probably 1% who have an interior designer involved.
We are in the middle of a remodel and involving an interior designer as early in the process as the architect resulted in a much different layout and floor plan than if we only worked with an architect.
The architect helped us make sure the house was structurally sound and the interior designer helped us make sure suited our needs.
- pottertheotter 5y agoThere seems to be a lot of variability in what architects do and care about. In your last sentence, I feel like you could often replace architect with structural engineer and interior designer with architect in other situations and end up with the same outcome.
- titanomachy 5y agoAgreed, I know architects who only do interior layouts.
- jmathai 5y agoI'm not familiar with the courses and topics that are included in an architectural program and if they subsume that of an interior designer. If so, then you're probably right. But, as far as I know, they're separate disciplines.
