7. • Interior design is a service which involves much more than
choosing a colour palette or finding the perfect art piece. It
is a methodical process that includes establishing a
relationship with a prospective employer, extensive
research, compilation of a portfolio for illustrative
purposes, the presentation of proposed designs,
contracting labour and supplies, overseeing progress from
start to finish, and finally delivering the agreed upon design
at the designated date. Many people are intimidated by the
prospect of engaging an interior design professional.
Nevertheless, the overwhelming majority of reluctant
consumers agree that the hiring of a designer should
seriously be considered because the results are a
worthwhile investment.
