Why should we use a professional interior designer?
Why should we use a professional interior designer?
As property owners, we often hesitate at the thought of using professional interior designers, thinking they are reserved for the upper classes and the wealthy. For most of us, we roll up our sleeves and attempt to find our inner designer, most often leading to disastrous consequences and stressed heads.
Whilst cutting corners and trying to spend less, we often create and end-product that is unsatisfactory, yet still spend extortionate amounts of money.
President Director of E&U, Ammrit Lakhiani talks to us about the benefits of using an interior designer and why we should throw away our overalls and bring in the experts!
1. Cost savings
When designing a room, we have a concept of what it is we want to achieve, however don’t have the experience or practice at getting this right. Whether you are a minimalist or a hoarder; if you buy lots of furniture separately, there is a good chance that it may not compliment the surrounding pieces and designs well.
We are all guilty of ‘following our hearts, not our heads’ sometimes, which can lead to unnecessary purchases of items, which we think we need; but in reality, do not. Ultimately, when buying items we need to think about symmetry, design, size, concept, proportions, positioning etc etc….. Lets face it… we are never going to think that much in depth!
By using an interior designer, they take away all the risk and find the right pieces for you and your home. They won’t over furnish a room or make you need to buy additional and replicating pieces. They get it right the first time, every time.
2. Proper planning and budgeting
‘Guesstimations’ are common when designing homes and offices. We can all guess how much it costs to design a room, but we don’t really know, because we do it so infrequently.
Professional interior designers, can provide you with detailed and specific plans which will allow you to budget more accurately. On top of that, the designer will also know the best prices for goods and services and have connections to reliable and skilled workers.
With knowledge of the industry, they will be able to find the right pieces for your home, at a desirable quality and at the best possible price!
3. Unique design with the Wow Factor!
Ever walked into a room and been dazzled by its uniqueness or individuality? Interior designers know how to make a space special. They can find unique pieces and create an environment that can surpass your expectations.
With experience and ‘tricks of the trade’, they can showcase your home in an exceptional way, light years beyond your own capabilities.
4. Add value to your home
It is no secret that we are living in a ‘buyers market’. There are many luxurious homes available and buyers and renters have a huge selection to choose from. If your home stands out from the crowd, it is more likely to be adorned by others.
By creating something different and to a higher level than the competition, you can raise the rental or sale price of your home significantly.
5. Connect architects and contractors
Designing and fitting rooms can be time consuming, stressful and confusing. By hiring an expert, they can take away all the hassle and leave yourself more time to spend doing things you enjoy!
When picturing your home or office, it is easy to imagine an end-product, but the journey from A to B is never simple. Many obstacles stand in your way which can lead to frustration and stress. The designer’s role is to visualise, design and create your desires, in a timely and professional manner.
