Work settings include residential, commercial, institutional and industrial buildings. The Interior Designer assesses a client’s needs and creates solutions. They design technical drawings then monitor and supervise the installation. At completion, the Interior Designer evaluates the project and ensures it meets the clients’ objectives along with all building, fire and safety codes.
