Get the Expertise You Need: Understanding Interior Design Services

The role of an Interior Designer/ Interior Architect, Interior Decorator or Stylist can sometimes be confusing but there are definite differences between the various roles – handy to know when you are looking for the right professional.

Interior Designer/ Interior Architect

Interior Designers/Interior Architects are tertiary qualified and Kaiko Design falls into this category. At Kaiko Design Interiors we can assist in space planning, the selection of finishes, fittings and fixtures, architectural lighting, kitchen and bathroom interior design and any custom cabinetry.

We are also able to assist in the selection of furniture, rugs, decorative lighting, window coverings, accessories and artwork to suit the built space.

Our main responsibility and top priority is the drawing/ documentation and specifying finishes to a level suitable for accurate pricing. We also work with various trades to see the project through to completion. This component is really the key to the value of using an interior designer. A comprehensive and accurate documentation package is the most powerful tool in managing the budget of a project. At Kaiko Design we document to a level that is somewhat uncommon in typical interior design. Our comprehensive knowledge of construction and materiality gives us the ability to change finishes or details to value engineer the interior to deliver it on time and on budget. Paying more upfront for documentation means far fewer surprises down the track. Builders love drawings and you should too!

Interior Decorator

An interior decorator is usually engaged once the structure and spaces are built. They are able to assist in the selection of furniture, rugs, decorative lighting, accessories and art to complete a space. Decorators are also able to assist in the choices of window coverings. At Kaiko Design we offer this decorative layer as part of our process and interior design service. We are a one-stop shop.

Stylist

A stylist is usually involved in staging a space, sometimes for a photoshoot for publications and sometimes staging a space just for viewing, such as for an open house.
