When To Hire Interior Designers

Victor Menasce
About this episode

On today’s show we are talking about how and when to hire an interior designer. 

As developers and as building owners we often look to the architect to help us determine the aesthetic of our buildings. But often the skillset is not sufficient to cover the breadth of interior design. 

We often hear the term interior decorator and some people use these terms interchangeably. But they are very different in my mind.

While there is some overlap in their responsibilities, there are distinct differences in terms of education, scope of work, and professional expertise.
