How would you explain the difference between a professional Interior Designer vs Interior Decorator to a stranger?: An Interior Designer works on way more than just selecting paints, we work hands on with architects to create the details and documents for projects from the beginning of schematic design all the way to the final walk-through. An Interior Decorator selects décor items for a space, such as artwork, plants, throw pillows etc. they do not get into the fine detail level as Interior designers do.
