*********************** ARTICLE START ***********************
Among the general public, "home designer" is not a readily known professional title. Most if not all who define their line of work as such, tend to have to follow-up with an explanation to specify exactly what it is they do. Despite the lack of clarity that may surround the title, you are almost sure that it has some relation to a house or home. Simply put, a home designer pretty much engage in the same work as an architect. To be clear, the job of an Architect embodies both residential and commercial work. A Home Designer generally stick to the design of buildings for single families such as houses and duplexes. Their unique niche include specialized skills in residential building design, interior building design, and home renovation projects.
Residential Building Design
If looked at closely, this really defines itself. Building design is a process by which a designer create concept drawings and eventually develop blueprints for the building. Residential simply defines the type of building that is designed. Many today would associate this work strictly as the job of an architect. To be blunt about, the word "architect" is defined as a person who design and also supervise the construction of buildings. The reality is that there is a low percentage of architects in comparison to home designers, who actually devote most of their time on the design of homes as their main line of business. Giving this fact, it is apparent why these professionals we label as home designers are considered the experts in residential architecture. It is the primary focus of their business. They are sometimes referred to as house designers, building designers, and residential designers.
Interior Building Design
Although this fall within the scope of work of a residential design expert, it is easy to believe that you may be referring to an interior designer or decorator. For whatever reason, the words interior, residential, and home seems to be interchangeable with the public. In otherwords, they are all one in the same according to those who make this assumption. From the viewpoint of a home planning expert, interior building design has to do more with construction design as oppose to finishes. It is more about merging the exterior with the interior in a particular architectural style to create a marriage or unity to complete the overall concept of the home. Examples of interior work include things like the type of crown mold used, ceiling treatments, window and door casings, etc. This type of design is what make it very different from the work of an interior specialist who in most cases begin their work after the the canvas has already been defined to a large degree by a home designer.
Home Renovation Projects
This really recap the previously mentioned skills. With a renovation, it sometimes involve an addon or addition. Couple that with merging interior finishes to the existing home, it is easy to see how your home designer can be a valuable ally in these type of projects.
I would be remiss if I leave out residential architects in this discussion. There are many architects that choose to specialize in houses, however their numbers in relation to commercial architects are small. On the flip side, a home designer focus strictly on single family homes and this is why they are considered the residential design experts.
