Is an interior designer different from an interior decorator?

• <div><p>Often those unaware of the differences use the terms <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/whats-difference-between-interior-designer-decorator.htm">interior designer and interior decorator</a> interchangeably. There’s a reason why interior designer fees are typically more than those of decorators. </p><p>Decorators focus solely on dressing the room with color, furnishings, and finishes. Designers have a broader remit, covering structural planning, layout, function, and general aesthetics. Because of the additional skills needed as a designer, they’ll have studied in the field and should have certification and possibly licensing.</p></div>

Q: What information should I gather before meeting with an interior space planner?

• <div><p>To help the designer understand your vision, provide room dimensions, photos, and a list of needs or preferences.</p></div>

Q: How do interior designers accommodate budget limitations during project planning?

• <div><p>Yes, most designers tailor plans to fit your budget. Discuss financial constraints during initial consultations.</p></div>

Q: Can I mix cabinet handle types?

• <div><p>Yes. It&rsquo;s common to have a combination of knobs and pulls for drawers and cabinets. There are usually a few different-sized cabinet doors or drawer fronts that look better with different scales of handles, or you might prefer one type of handle for a drawer front and a different one for a cabinet door. Be sure to choose handles of the same overall type when you mix and match and avoid using more than three types in one room to make sure everything flows together.</p></div>

Q: What architectural style is most associated with Arts and Crafts?

• <div><p>When you think about Arts and Crafts-style homes, you probably think of a Craftsman house or a bungalow-style Craftsman. Craftsman is one of the major styles developed during the Arts and Crafts movement, but it checks most boxes. Craftsman houses have low-pitched roofs, exposed rafters, open floor plans, and stunning wood finish.</p></div>

The whole team was very respectful and preformed their designated tasks to complete my project efficiently. Juan and Nestor are very skilled as carpenters and painters. Armando, the owner, was on site to translate, advise and negotiate. I was very impressed.

The ladies did a great job, the gel manicures last a very long time as they use real gel polishes not regular polish with a gel coat. Many design books to choose from. Ask for pricing up front, pricing in books are for polish only not including services like pedicures or manicures, tips etc.
