Interior designer of 6 years at an architecture firm here: I would say you really nailed it with the main differences. Architects draw reference from off-site, while interior designers work with the client to figure out and develop the design with them. For interior designers this process is called programming. For both of our professions, the function of the spaces is absolutely the number one priority. I would say interior designers really specialize in the human environment. Understanding how humans work and use the spaces we will be designing for them and how we can design it to fit into their routines and operations. This is why that close personal relation with clients is so important so that we can really mold the design around their habits. This also applies to commercial design. Every business has stakeholders and hierarchies as well as operations processes that we must become experts in so that we can form the design around those people and their needs, and the business operations, as well as anticipate new needs and desires that would come from the new designs impact post construction. This involves getting very detailed, drawing up shop drawings for millwork and selecting every accessory, knob, handle, light fixture, etc. So that they meet and contribute to the requirements of the program. At the end, everything being beautiful is just the cherry on top. The goal of an interior designer is to meet that program for use of the space, and serving the client.
I have a question: while I do understand what DamiLee and you (Jason Fischer), how I client that never hired a interior designs approach you for a future service. I am a realtor in NYC and many homes needs a interior design, but I really don't know how to hire one. Do you (your industry) charge a consulting fee? You take a retainer, how it works. Thank you.
@@jalfredoalderete I guess it all depends on company policies, some firms might have specific policies in place for such services. A freelancer would generally charge you an upfront fee if you are requesting a design or site visit, or in this case a design consultation. The best thing would be to look around and inquire about services, fees and the like before committing, as in general, all firms and designers would have a portfolio of previous works for you to decide if they fit your requirements from a client's perspective. Also for any renovation works you should be consulting with a contractor beforehand (if the interior firm or designer do not have any contacts with one) to assess what the properties would need in terms of renovation, before actually thinking of doing any interior design. I do not know what the procedures would be in NYC as I am not a resident of the US but this should be the norm as far as I am aware. Hope this helped!
Simplified body analogy: Architecture = Skin and bones that respond to external environmental stimuli. Interior Design = Feelings and emotions that respond to sensory relationships, perception, spirit.
For larger complex projects such as hotel developments it becomes important for both the architect and the interior designer to be able to think in both scales. Having this ability helps both sides develop the massing and improve adjacencies at an earlier stage
I really enjoyed this video. When I was an interior design student, I used some of your videos to help me form concepts for my projects and each time my professor would ask, “how does this tie into the clients?” Now I see that I was creating my concepts off external reference like an architect would. This clarifies things!!
I'm growing more convinced that Level Designers for games need an architecture class in school. I've found this far more helpful sometimes than what I was taught in school. Coming up with a "functional" or "formal" reason for an environment to exist is really important. Your videos are very helpful in many ways for people in games. Thank you.
Something about the way she talks so passionately, clearly, and direct about methods of design, creativity, and communication of practical as well as intimate concepts motivates me so much as an artist. Watching this and listening as I illustrate this project I'm working on touches core emotions of bliss that come from seeing someone like her tap in so deeply to what so many creatives have in common, but also what makes us unique across disciplines. Loved watching and listening to this video as with all of them. Every single one I feel like I learn something new.
I'm an interior design student. So yes what you've said is true. I tend to generate a concept by "putting my feet on to the client's boots" literally i imagine what it feels like to be them (ik it's kinda sounds like role-playing 😅)
The accuracy! As an interior designer, I have worked at an architecture-focused firm and now at a firm focused on interior architecture. I appreciated working alongside architects to learn their insights and process in developing the design of the building itself. I learned about different exterior requirements and terminology to help me as a designer. Architects design from the outside, whereas interior designers design from the inside out. I appreciated when I was able to work alongside architects to combine both approaches to create a cohesive design. Interior designers do have a more intimate relationship with clients. We start to learn how they communicate. Sometimes, they don't know how to express their wants for their space. For example, clients might say they want an exposed ceiling within their space. What an exposed ceiling is to them and what it is, in reality, can be two different things. Through talking through what it is, they may express they don't want to see all the “stuff” you would typically see, like the electrical and mechanical infrastructure. Then the designer would work with the engineers to provide a more refined exposed ceiling like the client desires.
Excellent example, because Interior Design does involve the entire interior envelope. The ceiling is as equal a plane as the floor. The lighting and acoustic performance derived from the ceiling also sets the immersive experience of a space. It also ensures people will be able to live and work efficiently and comfortably.
Great and thought provoking content thank you. I am an interior designer based in Palestine I have Bachelors degree in interior design, but i was always interested in Architecture therdore i applyed for a Masters of architecture in Turkey , after worked in architecture and interior design firm. Going through this experience ive learned how much architecture is more of communal than interior design which is indivisual. Architecture can set conversions for the comunities and affects them as whole especially in smaller ones. This changed my approach in design as before i was only interested in form qnd mood but now in my designs i try to create what can evolve to something affects a larger picture. Hope i made sense 🙏
I am brand designer who started perusing architecture before realising that this was not what I wanted to do. I find this video rather interesting because my daily process is very similar to what you described as the interior designer’s process. It’s so similar that probably 90% of what you’ve mentioned is part of my process. The focus on mood, the long conversations with the client to understand what they want the project to feel like, the list of words that describes the emotion / mood of the project. What’s even more interesting is how you made the connection with brand design and interior design. I’ve never realised how similar my process is to that of interior designers and that’s coming from the fact that interior design have been a recent interest of mine. Thanks so much for sharing. This video is a real eye opener for me.
As both an educated Interior Designer and Building Designer, there is a closer relationship with interior design as the designer is actually "invading" their personal space. You need to understand as feel the client much more, while building design is more about how to encapsualte the space. In some aspects, this can be two conflicting aspects in design threads. Interior is more touch and feel giving way to emotional aspects, while building design is about appearancea nd engagement. Hence why Interior Design uses the Moodboard concept as it allows for triggering the clients emotion.
Hi Dami! I'm currently worked as visual merchandiser but i stu(died) interior design for (almost) 5 years haha. I would say architects and interior designers are pretty much similar, both of us are still designers but with different approaches (technical and/or social contexts) and should be working together instead of working individually. For me its impossible to separate architecture and interior design because we came from a same field and there's a need for each other. Can't be more relate on how interior designers generates ideas and moods from adjectives.
I loved this video and the differences you discussed. However, whether architecture or interior design, the main goal is problem solving. Function before aesthetic. The biggest misconception of interior design is that they pick paint colors and furniture and call it a day. Many don’t know that interior designers can design custom furniture, built ins and other structural elements within an interior and even full floor plans. I think these are many of the reasons that a lot of schools are moving towards calling it interior architecture so that it comes off more closely related to what you actually do. 😊
Excellent presentation on the importance of Architect/Interior designer collaboration. If I could expand on that theme; As an Architect focused on large institutional projects (Military and Medical) the design team integration is paramount to project success and avoiding all that messy litigation that seems to follow large projects...we host a 3 day "Kumbaya" meeting with all the contractors, subcontractor, engineers, Interior Designers; where everyone does a meet and greet and team building. When it comes time for construction, one can deal with the team members in a more knowledgable & personal perspective. This is a Navy practice and has proven significant in reducing ligation, expediting construction schedules and delivering a project on time and on budget. Again, thanks for an excellent presentation
This is such a timely video. We selected our architect on the basis of her history working with contractor and interior designer. This has made designing our "forever home" into a fun project. We volunteer with disabled and ourselves have had to spend time in a wheelchair (due to choices in activities) and have designed our house with ADA accessibility as a primary consideration for our friends and possibly for US in a decade or two should it be needed. The garage has been designed to be converted to a studio apartment should we ever need live-in support (and no longer drive). The interior designer has as much an "eye" for seamless accessibility and it's FUN to sit in a meeting with the architect, contractor and interior designer as we get close to completion.
Great grand father worked in land Grand father worked in railways Father worked in town planning I am working in warehousing I believe in the concept of creating.. Space, time, sound, light, air, water and green... this is life. Namaste 🙏
1st year interior designer, you just gave me many things to think about! The project you get at work, can be weird, But the most rewarding project I had so far, was in the 1st month, they just crashed us into a school-project! I was tasked with a bedroom for the parents, of an active family some worked in politics, and I had to come with two concepts. And I like to be simple, so I just said in class: "It's morning and night concept then!"
I learned so much from my coworkers who were an interior designers. As an architect, i think it thought me a little bit on how to approach interior design.
I have learnt so much from your video Arch......thank you...............I am a student ARCHITECT in my country and am finding it difficult to understand this concept thing but am learning ...............Thank you
I'm neither an architect nor interior designer, but growing up with a father who did custom home interiors (and much more), I'm enamoured by all of it. I just recently subscribed to your channel, and I sure do love your videos; they're very informative, entertaining, and professionally done (with the added bonus that the host is easy on the eyes). Great quality work!
OMG i just found this video and it surprised me on how well you explained the differences between those professions. I'm studying Interior Design and I find it a little bit hard to explain to everybody why we are different from architects, so i found this video really helpful. One thing I would say is that we Interior designers, at least where I'm studying, do make diagrams to explain the concept of our projects, taking care of function, formal things and etc, we don't rely purely just on moodboards, but it's true it is kind of our starting point, and is also true i think we get to a more personal state with clients, so the result is a concept with more feeling to it as you said. Loved the video, love your content!! Bye!
It’s not just about the client-designer relationship. Interior designers are much more familiar with materials - species of wood, metals and their possibilities, colors etc. Architects on the other hand are trained to make sure buildings can be built, don’t leak and do not fall down. Many architects make the mistake to project themselves as “ranaissance men” knowing it all, including interior design, product design and graphic design. And in reality they don’t know it all. My great respect to interior designers, from an architect who had designed many buildings that still stand and do not leak.
Hello, Dami. The design of thee Architect. The flow of lines. The curvature. The jarrow hallways. A space. To be consumed. Like a drop of nature's fruit drink. Water creeps. The crevices say do I? Do I dare? To quench. The nourishment of evercontinuing completion. To live like a structure. Foreboding to wims of every soul having found bonding. The identification of oneself in the nothingness of confinement. The glimpse of nature within. To see myself in this nature within.
Been doing graphic design for 10 years, and ironically it feels really similar to interior designers work process. There is a lot of similarities in internal sources and the starting process with “mood and feel.” Sometimes it feels like you’d have to be a really good sales person at times when being a designer presenting to a client. If I had a do over. I’d definitely would have chosen to go interior design and architecture degree. It’s really a shame that I wish I had more time to decide what I’d wanted to do or knew ahead of time 12 years ago when going to college. Perhaps maybe shifting to another career wouldn’t be a bad idea later in life when I have an identity crisis. 🤠 Thanks for the video. Great content as always!
You can do it guys - I’m an interior designer who got her degree after being an English teacher for 6 years, so moving from not creative industry was even more of a challenge but I am so happy I did that. So many people don’t even know what would make them happy, if you figured it out just go for it. It’s not easy but most worthwhile things are not easy to get. Best of luck!
This is a really good description of how the two professions might approach the idea of concept. Many of my previous ID students will work in the ways that you describe, others will put a good deal of emphasis on the context of the project as well as the client. Whatever, a successful project is usually tied to having a strong concept in the first place, and generating the concept will usually involve broad research which is likely to include location, site, history, etc. as well as the client themselves. But you're right, ultimately there isn't a 'right' or 'wrong' way to do this; it's for each designer to find a process that works for them. It's the end result that's important in this case, I think.
Hi Dami, i love watching your content! so inspiring...i have bachelor degree in architecture, but now i'm an interior designer 😬... architecture method always become my foundation for doing my project, and it helps a lot! i can see and understand from a bigger picture, but also keep intimate with my client preference..it makes my concept so much reasonable and my argument more acceptable..
As an interior design student, I really like that you included the "paragraph" or the set of words when creating a concept. Not sure what others call it but for us it's a design (concept) statement
I have always loved design and architecture. In high school did the cadd and art programs and had in my mind I wanted to become an architect. I love all aspects of architecture but I am reserved and introverted. I had loved creating buildings and structures in design programs and modeling. But also love the aesthetics of design elements to build an environment and essence. Those close to me had some reservations on that field of study and equated it to very intense and taxing. I am sure they acted with well meaning. They suggested interior design was the field to get into. I ended up getting an associate's in interior design technologies but at that young age I didn't have the personality to be a successful and outgoing extrovert. I am in my mid 30s and trying to find my passion again after having my kidlets of age and more independent. Love both fields but I am content working in the background. I have done sales and can work with clients but I work better alone.
Same here, just passed 30 but still want to do the things I didn’t have the personality for at 18/19 when I was thrown into Uni. The regret is stressful so after work I’ve been exploring interests as I feel if I don’t try, I will feel worse at 40,50 etc.
With architects; (A) Function (B) Organization (C) Order (D) Mood. With interior designers, it's the opposite (maybe?); (A) Mood (B) Order (C) Organization (D) Function. Another great video! Thanks for sharing.
@@DamiLeeArch true, as an interior architect I can confirm that function trumps all, mood is only secondary. After all the space needs to be functional before conveying a specific mood.
Just wanted to mention that I appreciate you sharing this content. I had your newsletter in my inbox yesterday and wanted to thank you for that insight. Thought of replying with an email to show that I enjoy your newsletter, but this might be better, so others my subscribe as well. As a media design student, I find this content so interesting as I can usually abstract and use some stuff do improve my thought process. Thanks, Dami!
Hey Dami. I love that you made this video! I’m not sure where you are today (2 yrs later) with all of this but if you are interested in a deeper dive, I recommend you pick up Sasha Costanza-Chock’s “Design Justice”. This book/movement offers some really useful principles for equitable design that prioritizes the voices/experiences/knowledge of those most impacted by design, especially indigenous communities made vulnerable by systemic injustice. I’m also happy to hop on a call with you to share my experience bringing Design Justice and Equity-centered Community-led Ddesign practices to the corporate space. Thanks for all you do for the design community.
The profession of Interior Designer (ID) is surprisingly young and was a specialization from Architecture. The methodology they use is a pared down version of the concept development that Architecture uses, placing emphasis on the more humanistic and "internal" aspects, as the video outlines. Depending on ones education, particular school, and even your age, the manner of Architect you are can be ranged along how much of the Interior Design component you retained. DemiLee, a recent graduate and now registered Architect, exhibits the current skill set that current students of Architecture are getting in general, hence her discovery and integration of what Interior Designers do, after the fact. When I started my architectural studies, back in the late 1980s, what would be considered the domain of Interior Designers was common teaching in Architecture. One aspect in studio was "Chasing Adjectives" - which DamiLee demonstrates as one of the quintessential aspects of ID. What Architecture is needed to make something "strong", "safe", "approachable", "family", etc. This was common 40-50 years ago but has moved more and more into the paradigm of Interior Designers. In the USA, Alabama was the first state to legally recognize and protect Interior Designers as a profession... in 1982. That was only 40 years ago.
Hello Dami, I am really enjoying your videos, and it's loaded with useful information. you mentioned brand as a source of interior design concept or maybe a ground base material to generate ideas or maybe mood-board. and I've been working in "branded environment" field as an architect for about 3 years now, and I feel it's a completely anonymous field for fellow architects. So it would be great if you dedicate a video for BRANDED ENVIRONMENT field.
I've bouncing back and forth about being either, an architect or an interior designer. i love both so much, like I turely have a passion for design. But my thing about architecture is, do I really get to design anything or is it just the construction I work on? For example, do I work on the exterior style? And on what details to add? Or is it mainly construction and the stability? Like I love them both for the creativity I get to have, literally I love to design things. i've been playing the SIms 4 for a while now, which causeed the growth of my love for building designs both in exterior and interior. But my over all favorite part is exterior detail. I enjoy bringing life to my work with details whether they be big or small. I've also been watching videos on both for a students perspective, and as actual architect or interior designer. But I'm really split on the two, because they're both something I love. Architecture for the details and the stlye of the building in general and interior design for the ability to bring my work to life. My biggest thing though is, I don't want to pick one and regret no going for the other. I'm still in school, but the thought of it, regreting not going for something that truely brings me joy, so much so it doesn't even feel like a job, scares me.
Now a days to truly succeed on any profession or at least to stand out is very important to be multidisciplinary. Time is limited which is an aggressive constraint but when you can have a talk with interior designers, Electrician and heck even IT the planning of whatever you doing will inevitably change and adap a better design on all spaces for everyone involve. I'm not an architect but it has been my experience with laboratories and on site renovations I have participated where I work.
After I finished school I thought I wanted to be an interior designer, until I found out it wasn't exactly what I thought it was, I wish I had a video explain things clearly like this earlier but thank you 😊
Designing around a 'concept' is a postmodern process made popular in architecture schools in the 90s. This limits the design to an 'image' or abstract idea. The modern design process is to design using 'principles'. Famous modern architects like F.L. Wright and Mies van der Rohe always used architectural principles, not concepts. Mies in particular would be chagrin to see this as a primary design technique. Traditional architecture used neither concepts or principles and instead focused on formal geometry or various styles. I talk about this in a video I did many years ago here: ua-cam.com/video/m2tifgNBmIM/v-deo.html In terms of design, interior designers should know how to spatially design as well as architects. The only difference is interior designers don't need to know structural engineering and strength of materials. I would argue that the only difference between an architect and an interior designer is scale. Architects design on the scale of the building, while interior designers design on the scale of the functional space.
Lol, the explanation couldn't be more accurate! I'm also the only architect in an interior consultant, working in daily basis with interior designers. Wonder if there are many (or not) more like us out there.
Really insightful! I do think though that the differences you raise have a lot to do with where you schooled and the philosophy that was taught. I know architects from other schools who have a more pragmatic process, while I learned a more abstract approach to the development of the concept that utilizes the "dreams" and thoughts of the client as real source material. The issue I have in real life though, is that most clients find this to be less engaging because time is money. Even the interior processes I've witnessed skip many of the steps you mention and go straight for the material/color/finish boards. With that said, the interior designers do establish the closer relationships overall....good piece. thanks.
Hi Jeremy, I posted a question about how the process of hiring a interior design works. I am in NYC ( I'm a realtor) and I see that many homes need of a interior designs, but I never hire one and I wonder how I should tell my clients to check one. Thanks.
as interior architecture student i feel a difference between them feel more elaborated, from bottom up problem solving that see oportunity of city problem from people perspective to per semester challange that seems became more harder not from building type or level rather than private to family, to technology and case specific that seem architecture learn how to present interiority from philosophical denser pov but still bring technical collaboration with another engineering major speciality
I am a recent graduate in interior design. I really like your video, thanks for sharing. I look forward to hearing from you about finding an internship in the corresponding field.
I've been in the field of interior design for over forty years. I love your philosophy and approach and could spend hours chatting and sharing thoughts. If you are ever in the 808 state, pls let me know. Aloha!
Hello Dami! I stumbled upon your channel recently. I'm a student studying Architectural Engineering, and I think it is going to be a growing field for many young engineers as there are so many infrastructure problems that we will have to solve. Do you have experience working with an ARCE in any firms or contractors? What do you see their benefit to the building science industry?
Building science is a great field to get into right now, with all the new energy requirements becoming a standard. However, if you’re more interested in overseeing the entire project, rather than focusing on only one part, I would think about pursuing architecture.
would be nice if you could do one on Landscape Architecture , i work in an landscape architectural firm and we always collaborate with Architects all the time , i believe our understanding of planning, design, management, and nurturing of the built and natural environments. We landscape architects work to improve human and environmental health in all communities.
How do you feel about building commissioning for all buildings? Building commissioning was a big deal 20 years ago in college. Just wonder what the new generation thinks about it. Thank you. Glad I found this channel.
Interior Design and Architecture are different from the very moment they have different scope of action. An architect ideally should connect relationship of building with the city, relationship with nature, technical implementation of the building itself with design of both interior AND exterior space of living. Basically the architect has the potential to deeply integrate all these aspects and this is why good architecture feels so easy in the sense that everything seems to follow a purpose in a grander scheme/concept, and this is why the greatest architects that we learn about at college were/are all people that at some point of their career expanded their scope to just making buildings: be it product design, painting, interior design, landscaping, even civil engineering. On the other hand, Interior designers are confined to a more specific scope from the get go. They mostly dwell on already designed and even already built buildings, and they mostly affect interior space(which is no small thing dont get me wrong, it is said that humans spend 90%+ of their time nowadays in interior spaces), so they have to make the most out of what they are dealt with, this leads to a more specialized professional that can see more nuance in the "small things" an architect would probably not. If both were tools, an architect is a more generic toolset that allows to you do a lot of different things at a good enough level, interior design is a smaller but more purpose-built toolset that is very good at doing the couple of tasks they were purposed to. Lastly, another difference is ability to "scale": I think an architect has an easier time "scaling down" to more specific interior design work, than an Interior designer can "scale up" to building space design. And i'm not talking about knowledge of building systems here, strictly about creation/manipulation of habitable space. The reason for this is because architects are trained from the get go to not lose focus in the whole picture, whereas it is very difficult to teach this to a professional that has taken the time to specialize to a very specific portion of that whole picture and got used to having other professionals "take care" of the other areas of that whole picture.
i honestly think doing both at the same time is the most fun & interesting. currently am enrolled in both programs, but rn only pursuing architecture, recently doubting myself if this is the right choice...
Don't overthink it. Go with whichever speaks to you the most. I will say this.. I know of some architects/ architectural designers who have easily switched to interior design.. and some interior designers that I have talked to have found it more difficult to switch to architecture. Overall, choose whichever one that you feel more drawn to.
The presentation of ideas is very well done, and the studied mixture of short video clips, hand drawings, models and photos keeps the viewer engaged through the whole video. Keep up the great work. I will make sure to show my students this video and some others that you have created.
Aslymu alylum (peace be with you) Damele. I would love you to make a video about how to design (from A to Z) the building/structure and talk about all the different engineers and architects who are involved in the design and how they work on it and the level of work for all the professionals involved in the construction...... Thanks sister I really love your work And the way you make ur videos, you are my idol. Believe me I became addicted to your videos 😅 It is informative and interesting content at the same time.....
So alot of my work at a net helpmsg is now putting alot of a meaning in where the ability of the start is become to another person a ssh. The sha in everything of a boot, lock and querylock that has somehow become of a add vector and the attribute vectos in where the bcdedit is to you the only prompt to everything you need
architects, interior design without employees who treat their work as a passion and hobby. In other words, work because I have to, work because I want to. So many architects and interior design passed through my hands and none of them even had a hammer in their hands. Conept is there, but you architects and interior design will not live in what you present. It's all about money, you as much as possible and the employee as little as possible
Fascinating - thank you. I'm interested in a similar comparison of architects and urban designers. More broadly, if you have time to respond: I'm studying the impact of our landscapes on well-being and believe the home is essential (interior design, layout, site, etc.), but also green space, access to services, walkability, etc. Is there any one field that's best for a multi-disciplinary design like that?
Which i like code reuse..so the net helpmsg is a great place for all that disappointment into a place like the pci and the network adapters..more for your images in the net helpmsg...so please boot, lock, querylock until the dreams of that come true
I'm really happy with these earbuds. They have a nice balanced sound and they pass the honky tonk test (some modern headphones and speakers don't jive with pre-digital country music). I'm seeing good things for Soundcore if they keep up the good work.
Is it possible for an architect to work as an interior designer with taking the needed knowledge like the methods and techniques of using like elements of design (colors,textures,lines,shapes,lights…) also principles of design (contrast,balance,movement,pattern,scale…) , the interior design styles , and visual communication skills( mood board, materials board, 2d drawings, 3d rendering…) Thanks
Hi Dami, thank you for your very informative video! Do you ever worked with Industrial Designers and Graphic Designers as well? A lot of hospitality and Retail clients wants custom furniture and graphic design work. What are your experiences with other creatives doing or supporting an architectural project?
I loved your video. I am interested in how we can fix existing buildings and making them more sustainable. But also in how houses could be made according to people’s jobs and health concerns. Would you call that interior renovation or interior architecture or even spatial design. I am mostly interested in space, inside spaces, in buildings. But also in textiles, furniture and interior building materials. I am looking into studying this but I am not sure where this fits in. Any ideas?
I’m an interior designer, working with architect. I’m very interested in sustainability, so that is a big part of my design approach. To address your question - a lot of sustainability aspects comes from how the building is constructed, starting with construction materials, insulation, windows and doors, as well as building orientation in relation to natural conditions (solar and wind). When renovating an existing building you can only do so much, but there are definitely methods and products to drastically improve the quality of life within the building from temperature and ventilation point of view. All that you most likely won’t learn during an interior design studies, as it falls within architecture domain. What you will learn is spatial design, you will learn about materials and their application, but I don’t know how much schools devote to sustainability these days. It is also quite common to hear about “green” or “eco” products, but when you look into them it turns out that they may not be so green. Bottom line is this: if you want to do renovations without expanding the building and you want to focus on improving its functionality and internal conditions, interior designer is probably what I would go for. Then you need to dive in and look for products, do research on how particular material you want to use is made. Get clarity on what is important for you - is it only how he material going to perform for the user or are you also concerned about how it’s production impacts the environment and what happens with it after it’s not used anymore. As for optimal living conditions in any building you need to consider ease of access for people with movement impairment, but also using zero VOC paints and products, ensuring good ventilation and thermal control (good insulation + proper windows). I hope that helps somehow 🙂
And then you have Interior Architecture which is best of both worlds taking concepts, programs and general way of thinking from each. In my experience anyway.
Hi Dami! Do you have a video describing the MARCH at Toronto Metropolitan University? I want to understand the course structure but their website content is not so descriptive of the courses. I want to understand your opinion about the program.
Interior designer of 6 years at an architecture firm here: I would say you really nailed it with the main differences. Architects draw reference from off-site, while interior designers work with the client to figure out and develop the design with them. For interior designers this process is called programming. For both of our professions, the function of the spaces is absolutely the number one priority. I would say interior designers really specialize in the human environment. Understanding how humans work and use the spaces we will be designing for them and how we can design it to fit into their routines and operations. This is why that close personal relation with clients is so important so that we can really mold the design around their habits. This also applies to commercial design. Every business has stakeholders and hierarchies as well as operations processes that we must become experts in so that we can form the design around those people and their needs, and the business operations, as well as anticipate new needs and desires that would come from the new designs impact post construction.

At the end, everything being beautiful is just the cherry on top. The goal of an interior designer is to meet that program for use of the space, and serving the client.
is there anything you wrote not already what she said?
Well said.
I have a question: while I do understand what DamiLee and you (Jason Fischer), how I client that never hired a interior designs approach you for a future service. I am a realtor in NYC and many homes needs a interior design, but I really don't know how to hire one. Do you (your industry) charge a consulting fee? You take a retainer, how it works. Thank you.
@@jalfredoalderete I guess it all depends on company policies, some firms might have specific policies in place for such services. A freelancer would generally charge you an upfront fee if you are requesting a design or site visit, or in this case a design consultation. The best thing would be to look around and inquire about services, fees and the like before committing, as in general, all firms and designers would have a portfolio of previous works for you to decide if they fit your requirements from a client's perspective.
Also for any renovation works you should be consulting with a contractor beforehand (if the interior firm or designer do not have any contacts with one) to assess what the properties would need in terms of renovation, before actually thinking of doing any interior design. I do not know what the procedures would be in NYC as I am not a resident of the US but this should be the norm as far as I am aware. Hope this helped!
@@M-Rini thanks you, your answer was very helpful.
Simplified body analogy: Architecture = Skin and bones that respond to external environmental stimuli. Interior Design = Feelings and emotions that respond to sensory relationships, perception, spirit.
For larger complex projects such as hotel developments it becomes important for both the architect and the interior designer to be able to think in both scales. Having this ability helps both sides develop the massing and improve adjacencies at an earlier stage
I really enjoyed this video. When I was an interior design student, I used some of your videos to help me form concepts for my projects and each time my professor would ask, “how does this tie into the clients?” Now I see that I was creating my concepts off external reference like an architect would. This clarifies things!!
I'm growing more convinced that Level Designers for games need an architecture class in school. I've found this far more helpful sometimes than what I was taught in school. Coming up with a "functional" or "formal" reason for an environment to exist is really important. Your videos are very helpful in many ways for people in games. Thank you.
Something about the way she talks so passionately, clearly, and direct about methods of design, creativity, and communication of practical as well as intimate concepts motivates me so much as an artist. Watching this and listening as I illustrate this project I'm working on touches core emotions of bliss that come from seeing someone like her tap in so deeply to what so many creatives have in common, but also what makes us unique across disciplines. Loved watching and listening to this video as with all of them. Every single one I feel like I learn something new.
Hope You feel proud of your projects throughout the whole process
I'm an interior design student. So yes what you've said is true. I tend to generate a concept by "putting my feet on to the client's boots" literally i imagine what it feels like to be them (ik it's kinda sounds like role-playing 😅)
It’s such a special skill! Takes a lot of empathy 😁
Concepts, moodboards, poems? As an engineer, I can only @_@..
As a former land surveyor and first year architecture student I feel your pain 🤦🏾♂️😂
NASA engineer: I made this mood board for the next deep space suit. It’s gonna work trust me bro I’m an engineer.
Each field has its own specialty and essence, that's what makes the construction field a whole isn't it.
The accuracy! As an interior designer, I have worked at an architecture-focused firm and now at a firm focused on interior architecture. I appreciated working alongside architects to learn their insights and process in developing the design of the building itself. I learned about different exterior requirements and terminology to help me as a designer. Architects design from the outside, whereas interior designers design from the inside out. I appreciated when I was able to work alongside architects to combine both approaches to create a cohesive design. Interior designers do have a more intimate relationship with clients. We start to learn how they communicate. Sometimes, they don't know how to express their wants for their space. For example, clients might say they want an exposed ceiling within their space. What an exposed ceiling is to them and what it is, in reality, can be two different things. Through talking through what it is, they may express they don't want to see all the “stuff” you would typically see, like the electrical and mechanical infrastructure. Then the designer would work with the engineers to provide a more refined exposed ceiling like the client desires.
Totally aproved
Excellent example, because Interior Design does involve the entire interior envelope. The ceiling is as equal a plane as the floor. The lighting and acoustic performance derived from the ceiling also sets the immersive experience of a space. It also ensures people will be able to live and work efficiently and comfortably.
Great and thought provoking content thank you. I am an interior designer based in Palestine I have Bachelors degree in interior design, but i was always interested in Architecture therdore i applyed for a Masters of architecture in Turkey , after worked in architecture and interior design firm. Going through this experience ive learned how much architecture is more of communal than interior design which is indivisual. Architecture can set conversions for the comunities and affects them as whole especially in smaller ones. This changed my approach in design as before i was only interested in form qnd mood but now in my designs i try to create what can evolve to something affects a larger picture. Hope i made sense 🙏
I am brand designer who started perusing architecture before realising that this was not what I wanted to do. I find this video rather interesting because my daily process is very similar to what you described as the interior designer’s process. It’s so similar that probably 90% of what you’ve mentioned is part of my process. The focus on mood, the long conversations with the client to understand what they want the project to feel like, the list of words that describes the emotion / mood of the project. What’s even more interesting is how you made the connection with brand design and interior design. I’ve never realised how similar my process is to that of interior designers and that’s coming from the fact that interior design have been a recent interest of mine.
Thanks so much for sharing. This video is a real eye opener for me.
As both an educated Interior Designer and Building Designer, there is a closer relationship with interior design as the designer is actually "invading" their personal space. You need to understand as feel the client much more, while building design is more about how to encapsualte the space. In some aspects, this can be two conflicting aspects in design threads. Interior is more touch and feel giving way to emotional aspects, while building design is about appearancea nd engagement. Hence why Interior Design uses the Moodboard concept as it allows for triggering the clients emotion.
Just found your channel, and gosh I'm so glad I did. You're so knowledgeable and composed. You speak so calmly and clearly communicate your points.
Hi Dami! I'm currently worked as visual merchandiser but i stu(died) interior design for (almost) 5 years haha. I would say architects and interior designers are pretty much similar, both of us are still designers but with different approaches (technical and/or social contexts) and should be working together instead of working individually. For me its impossible to separate architecture and interior design because we came from a same field and there's a need for each other. Can't be more relate on how interior designers generates ideas and moods from adjectives.
I loved this video and the differences you discussed. However, whether architecture or interior design, the main goal is problem solving. Function before aesthetic. The biggest misconception of interior design is that they pick paint colors and furniture and call it a day. Many don’t know that interior designers can design custom furniture, built ins and other structural elements within an interior and even full floor plans. I think these are many of the reasons that a lot of schools are moving towards calling it interior architecture so that it comes off more closely related to what you actually do. 😊
Excellent presentation on the importance of Architect/Interior designer collaboration. If I could expand on that theme; As an Architect focused on large institutional projects (Military and Medical) the design team integration is paramount to project success and avoiding all that messy litigation that seems to follow large projects...we host a 3 day "Kumbaya" meeting with all the contractors, subcontractor, engineers, Interior Designers; where everyone does a meet and greet and team building. When it comes time for construction, one can deal with the team members in a more knowledgable & personal perspective. This is a Navy practice and has proven significant in reducing ligation, expediting construction schedules and delivering a project on time and on budget. Again, thanks for an excellent presentation
This is such a timely video. We selected our architect on the basis of her history working with contractor and interior designer. This has made designing our "forever home" into a fun project. We volunteer with disabled and ourselves have had to spend time in a wheelchair (due to choices in activities) and have designed our house with ADA accessibility as a primary consideration for our friends and possibly for US in a decade or two should it be needed. The garage has been designed to be converted to a studio apartment should we ever need live-in support (and no longer drive). The interior designer has as much an "eye" for seamless accessibility and it's FUN to sit in a meeting with the architect, contractor and interior designer as we get close to completion.
Great grand father worked in land

I'm a 3rd year architecture student here in the Philippines and all i can say is awesome and thank you for sharing your thoughts 😊💙 more power 😊
Everytime you post Dami, im always excited for your content ❤
Thank you 🙏
1st year interior designer, you just gave me many things to think about!
The project you get at work, can be weird, But the most rewarding project I had so far, was in the 1st month, they just crashed us into a school-project! I was tasked with a bedroom for the parents, of an active family some worked in politics, and I had to come with two concepts. And I like to be simple, so I just said in class: "It's morning and night concept then!"
I learned so much from my coworkers who were an interior designers. As an architect, i think it thought me a little bit on how to approach interior design.
I have learnt so much from your video Arch......thank you...............I am a student ARCHITECT in my country and am finding it difficult to understand this concept thing
but am learning ...............Thank you
I'm neither an architect nor interior designer, but growing up with a father who did custom home interiors (and much more), I'm enamoured by all of it. I just recently subscribed to your channel, and I sure do love your videos; they're very informative, entertaining, and professionally done (with the added bonus that the host is easy on the eyes). Great quality work!
OMG i just found this video and it surprised me on how well you explained the differences between those professions. I'm studying Interior Design and I find it a little bit hard to explain to everybody why we are different from architects, so i found this video really helpful. One thing I would say is that we Interior designers, at least where I'm studying, do make diagrams to explain the concept of our projects, taking care of function, formal things and etc, we don't rely purely just on moodboards, but it's true it is kind of our starting point, and is also true i think we get to a more personal state with clients, so the result is a concept with more feeling to it as you said.
Loved the video, love your content!! Bye!
It’s not just about the client-designer relationship. Interior designers are much more familiar with materials - species of wood, metals and their possibilities, colors etc. Architects on the other hand are trained to make sure buildings can be built, don’t leak and do not fall down.
Many architects make the mistake to project themselves as “ranaissance men” knowing it all, including interior design, product design and graphic design. And in reality they don’t know it all. My great respect to interior designers, from an architect who had designed many buildings that still stand and do not leak.
Hello, Dami.
The design of thee Architect.
The flow of lines. The curvature. The jarrow hallways. A space. To be consumed. Like a drop of nature's fruit drink.
Water creeps. The crevices say do I? Do I dare? To quench. The nourishment of evercontinuing completion.
To live like a structure. Foreboding to wims of every soul having found bonding.
The identification of oneself in the nothingness of confinement. The glimpse of nature within.
To see myself in this nature within.
Been doing graphic design for 10 years, and ironically it feels really similar to interior designers work process. There is a lot of similarities in internal sources and the starting process with “mood and feel.” Sometimes it feels like you’d have to be a really good sales person at times when being a designer presenting to a client.
If I had a do over. I’d definitely would have chosen to go interior design and architecture degree. It’s really a shame that I wish I had more time to decide what I’d wanted to do or knew ahead of time 12 years ago when going to college.
Perhaps maybe shifting to another career wouldn’t be a bad idea later in life when I have an identity crisis. 🤠
Thanks for the video. Great content as always!
Graphic Designer for 6 years here.
Im considering a career change into architecture myself, so your not alone! Its so daunting though!
You can do it guys - I’m an interior designer who got her degree after being an English teacher for 6 years, so moving from not creative industry was even more of a challenge but I am so happy I did that. So many people don’t even know what would make them happy, if you figured it out just go for it. It’s not easy but most worthwhile things are not easy to get. Best of luck!
This is a really good description of how the two professions might approach the idea of concept. Many of my previous ID students will work in the ways that you describe, others will put a good deal of emphasis on the context of the project as well as the client. Whatever, a successful project is usually tied to having a strong concept in the first place, and generating the concept will usually involve broad research which is likely to include location, site, history, etc. as well as the client themselves. But you're right, ultimately there isn't a 'right' or 'wrong' way to do this; it's for each designer to find a process that works for them. It's the end result that's important in this case, I think.
Hi Dami, i love watching your content! so inspiring...i have bachelor degree in architecture, but now i'm an interior designer 😬... architecture method always become my foundation for doing my project, and it helps a lot! i can see and understand from a bigger picture, but also keep intimate with my client preference..it makes my concept so much reasonable and my argument more acceptable..
I love your contents, Dami!! Very insightful and help me a lot since i’m a new interior architecture student😁
As an interior design student, I really like that you included the "paragraph" or the set of words when creating a concept. Not sure what others call it but for us it's a design (concept) statement
hey dami i am 16 yrs old look upon u as a aspiring architect ..thanks alot 💕✌🏻
I have always loved design and architecture. In high school did the cadd and art programs and had in my mind I wanted to become an architect. I love all aspects of architecture but I am reserved and introverted. I had loved creating buildings and structures in design programs and modeling. But also love the aesthetics of design elements to build an environment and essence. Those close to me had some reservations on that field of study and equated it to very intense and taxing. I am sure they acted with well meaning. They suggested interior design was the field to get into. I ended up getting an associate's in interior design technologies but at that young age I didn't have the personality to be a successful and outgoing extrovert. I am in my mid 30s and trying to find my passion again after having my kidlets of age and more independent. Love both fields but I am content working in the background. I have done sales and can work with clients but I work better alone.
Same here, just passed 30 but still want to do the things I didn’t have the personality for at 18/19 when I was thrown into Uni. The regret is stressful so after work I’ve been exploring interests as I feel if I don’t try, I will feel worse at 40,50 etc.
With architects; (A) Function (B) Organization (C) Order (D) Mood. With interior designers, it's the opposite (maybe?); (A) Mood (B) Order (C) Organization (D) Function. Another great video! Thanks for sharing.
Thanks! I think function would be at the top with mood for interior designers as well.
@@DamiLeeArch true, as an interior architect I can confirm that function trumps all, mood is only secondary. After all the space needs to be functional before conveying a specific mood.
Just wanted to mention that I appreciate you sharing this content. I had your newsletter in my inbox yesterday and wanted to thank you for that insight. Thought of replying with an email to show that I enjoy your newsletter, but this might be better, so others my subscribe as well. As a media design student, I find this content so interesting as I can usually abstract and use some stuff do improve my thought process. Thanks, Dami!
Hey Dami. I love that you made this video! I’m not sure where you are today (2 yrs later) with all of this but if you are interested in a deeper dive, I recommend you pick up Sasha Costanza-Chock’s “Design Justice”. This book/movement offers some really useful principles for equitable design that prioritizes the voices/experiences/knowledge of those most impacted by design, especially indigenous communities made vulnerable by systemic injustice. I’m also happy to hop on a call with you to share my experience bringing Design Justice and Equity-centered Community-led Ddesign practices to the corporate space. Thanks for all you do for the design community.
The profession of Interior Designer (ID) is surprisingly young and was a specialization from Architecture. The methodology they use is a pared down version of the concept development that Architecture uses, placing emphasis on the more humanistic and "internal" aspects, as the video outlines. Depending on ones education, particular school, and even your age, the manner of Architect you are can be ranged along how much of the Interior Design component you retained. DemiLee, a recent graduate and now registered Architect, exhibits the current skill set that current students of Architecture are getting in general, hence her discovery and integration of what Interior Designers do, after the fact. When I started my architectural studies, back in the late 1980s, what would be considered the domain of Interior Designers was common teaching in Architecture.
One aspect in studio was "Chasing Adjectives" - which DamiLee demonstrates as one of the quintessential aspects of ID. What Architecture is needed to make something "strong", "safe", "approachable", "family", etc. This was common 40-50 years ago but has moved more and more into the paradigm of Interior Designers.
In the USA, Alabama was the first state to legally recognize and protect Interior Designers as a profession... in 1982. That was only 40 years ago.
Hello Dami, I am really enjoying your videos, and it's loaded with useful information. you mentioned brand as a source of interior design concept or maybe a ground base material to generate ideas or maybe mood-board. and I've been working in "branded environment" field as an architect for about 3 years now, and I feel it's a completely anonymous field for fellow architects. So it would be great if you dedicate a video for BRANDED ENVIRONMENT field.
I've bouncing back and forth about being either, an architect or an interior designer. i love both so much, like I turely have a passion for design. But my thing about architecture is, do I really get to design anything or is it just the construction I work on? For example, do I work on the exterior style? And on what details to add? Or is it mainly construction and the stability?
Like I love them both for the creativity I get to have, literally I love to design things. i've been playing the SIms 4 for a while now, which causeed the growth of my love for building designs both in exterior and interior. But my over all favorite part is exterior detail. I enjoy bringing life to my work with details whether they be big or small.
I've also been watching videos on both for a students perspective, and as actual architect or interior designer. But I'm really split on the two, because they're both something I love. Architecture for the details and the stlye of the building in general and interior design for the ability to bring my work to life.
My biggest thing though is, I don't want to pick one and regret no going for the other. I'm still in school, but the thought of it, regreting not going for something that truely brings me joy, so much so it doesn't even feel like a job, scares me.
I really enjoy every seconde of this video ... Thanks for everything ... Keep doing the best 💪🇩🇿
Now a days to truly succeed on any profession or at least to stand out is very important to be multidisciplinary. Time is limited which is an aggressive constraint but when you can have a talk with interior designers, Electrician and heck even IT the planning of whatever you doing will inevitably change and adap a better design on all spaces for everyone involve. I'm not an architect but it has been my experience with laboratories and on site renovations I have participated where I work.
This is one of my top 5 fav channels, thx. Professional & ... not bad to look at.😉
Very insightful video! Would love for you to cover the difference between architecture and landscape architecture!
Yeah that would be a good one, but I don’t have experience working in a landscape architecture firm! May be a guest interview 😊
After I finished school I thought I wanted to be an interior designer, until I found out it wasn't exactly what I thought it was, I wish I had a video explain things clearly like this earlier but thank you 😊
I'm going to Unlv for architecture this was very helpful in giving insight into what interior designers do thankyou very much for posting
Designing around a 'concept' is a postmodern process made popular in architecture schools in the 90s. This limits the design to an 'image' or abstract idea. The modern design process is to design using 'principles'. Famous modern architects like F.L. Wright and Mies van der Rohe always used architectural principles, not concepts. Mies in particular would be chagrin to see this as a primary design technique. Traditional architecture used neither concepts or principles and instead focused on formal geometry or various styles. I talk about this in a video I did many years ago here: ua-cam.com/video/m2tifgNBmIM/v-deo.html
In terms of design, interior designers should know how to spatially design as well as architects. The only difference is interior designers don't need to know structural engineering and strength of materials. I would argue that the only difference between an architect and an interior designer is scale. Architects design on the scale of the building, while interior designers design on the scale of the functional space.
Lol, the explanation couldn't be more accurate! I'm also the only architect in an interior consultant, working in daily basis with interior designers. Wonder if there are many (or not) more like us out there.
Really insightful! I do think though that the differences you raise have a lot to do with where you schooled and the philosophy that was taught. I know architects from other schools who have a more pragmatic process, while I learned a more abstract approach to the development of the concept that utilizes the "dreams" and thoughts of the client as real source material. The issue I have in real life though, is that most clients find this to be less engaging because time is money. Even the interior processes I've witnessed skip many of the steps you mention and go straight for the material/color/finish boards. With that said, the interior designers do establish the closer relationships overall....good piece. thanks.
Hi Jeremy, I posted a question about how the process of hiring a interior design works. I am in NYC ( I'm a realtor) and I see that many homes need of a interior designs, but I never hire one and I wonder how I should tell my clients to check one. Thanks.
as interior architecture student i feel a difference between them feel more elaborated, from bottom up problem solving that see oportunity of city problem from people perspective to per semester challange that seems became more harder not from building type or level rather than private to family, to technology and case specific that seem architecture learn how to present interiority from philosophical denser pov but still bring technical collaboration with another engineering major speciality
I am a recent graduate in interior design. I really like your video, thanks for sharing. I look forward to hearing from you about finding an internship in the corresponding field.
The content of this was beautifully described 👌🏾
Its nice to see a woman who is intelligent and pretty. I enjoy her smile.
Not an architect or designer but I love your channel and your work!
I've been in the field of interior design for over forty years. I love your philosophy and approach and could spend hours chatting and sharing thoughts. If you are ever in the 808 state, pls let me know. Aloha!
Hello Dami! I stumbled upon your channel recently. I'm a student studying Architectural Engineering, and I think it is going to be a growing field for many young engineers as there are so many infrastructure problems that we will have to solve. Do you have experience working with an ARCE in any firms or contractors? What do you see their benefit to the building science industry?
Building science is a great field to get into right now, with all the new energy requirements becoming a standard. However, if you’re more interested in overseeing the entire project, rather than focusing on only one part, I would think about pursuing architecture.
Apart from fixture, sometimes we will do mill work. Is the millwork part of architecture?
would be nice if you could do one on Landscape Architecture , i work in an landscape architectural firm and we always collaborate with Architects all the time , i believe our understanding of planning, design, management, and nurturing of the built and natural environments. We landscape architects work to improve human and environmental health in all communities.
I had similar experiences as you described.
Thank you for the video. It was very interesting and well done.
How do you feel about building commissioning for all buildings? Building commissioning was a big deal 20 years ago in college. Just wonder what the new generation thinks about it.
Thank you. Glad I found this channel.
Interior Design and Architecture are different from the very moment they have different scope of action. An architect ideally should connect relationship of building with the city, relationship with nature, technical implementation of the building itself with design of both interior AND exterior space of living.
Basically the architect has the potential to deeply integrate all these aspects and this is why good architecture feels so easy in the sense that everything seems to follow a purpose in a grander scheme/concept, and this is why the greatest architects that we learn about at college were/are all people that at some point of their career expanded their scope to just making buildings: be it product design, painting, interior design, landscaping, even civil engineering.
On the other hand, Interior designers are confined to a more specific scope from the get go. They mostly dwell on already designed and even already built buildings, and they mostly affect interior space(which is no small thing dont get me wrong, it is said that humans spend 90%+ of their time nowadays in interior spaces), so they have to make the most out of what they are dealt with, this leads to a more specialized professional that can see more nuance in the "small things" an architect would probably not.
If both were tools, an architect is a more generic toolset that allows to you do a lot of different things at a good enough level, interior design is a smaller but more purpose-built toolset that is very good at doing the couple of tasks they were purposed to.
Lastly, another difference is ability to "scale": I think an architect has an easier time "scaling down" to more specific interior design work, than an Interior designer can "scale up" to building space design. And i'm not talking about knowledge of building systems here, strictly about creation/manipulation of habitable space. The reason for this is because architects are trained from the get go to not lose focus in the whole picture, whereas it is very difficult to teach this to a professional that has taken the time to specialize to a very specific portion of that whole picture and got used to having other professionals "take care" of the other areas of that whole picture.
I found this channel today and i just fall in love with the owner of this channel
I would love to see your perspective on the differences between architecture and landscape architecture.
Another amazing architecture video *BIG THUMBS UP!!!
Pls make a video about the archtechture and designs of disneyland and theme parks and how they make you feel magical and you keep wanting to go back
Awesome video, very insightful. Thank you so much.
i honestly think doing both at the same time is the most fun & interesting. currently am enrolled in both programs, but rn only pursuing architecture, recently doubting myself if this is the right choice...
Don't overthink it. Go with whichever speaks to you the most. I will say this.. I know of some architects/ architectural designers who have easily switched to interior design.. and some interior designers that I have talked to have found it more difficult to switch to architecture. Overall, choose whichever one that you feel more drawn to.
@@nenyattak thank you I prayed someone would answer my comment 🙏🏻
Thank you. love this
So like a modularization but the libraray in your words
The presentation of ideas is very well done, and the studied mixture of short video clips, hand drawings, models and photos keeps the viewer engaged through the whole video. Keep up the great work. I will make sure to show my students this video and some others that you have created.
Aslymu alylum (peace be with you) Damele. I would love you to make a video about how to design (from A to Z) the building/structure and talk about all the different engineers and architects who are involved in the design and how they work on it and the level of work for all the professionals involved in the construction......
Thanks sister I really love your work And the way you make ur videos, you are my idol.
Believe me I became addicted to your videos 😅
It is informative and interesting content at the same time.....
So alot of my work at a net helpmsg is now putting alot of a meaning in where the ability of the start is become to another person a ssh. The sha in everything of a boot, lock and querylock that has somehow become of a add vector and the attribute vectos in where the bcdedit is to you the only prompt to everything you need
architects, interior design without employees who treat their work as a passion and hobby. In other words, work because I have to, work because I want to. So many architects and interior design passed through my hands and none of them even had a hammer in their hands. Conept is there, but you architects and interior design will not live in what you present. It's all about money, you as much as possible and the employee as little as possible
Please make a video on vector works
Thank you so much!!!💯💯💯.
Thank you 🙏
you run a really great channel.💎
Fascinating - thank you. I'm interested in a similar comparison of architects and urban designers. More broadly, if you have time to respond: I'm studying the impact of our landscapes on well-being and believe the home is essential (interior design, layout, site, etc.), but also green space, access to services, walkability, etc. Is there any one field that's best for a multi-disciplinary design like that?
Thank you

Not an architect nor an interior designer..but this was insightful. 👍
Thank you.

Legend has it he never ca back later.
Just picked up a pair of those Anker Space earbuds from the link.. good timing on the Ad; I need a new pair. Curious to see how they sound.
I'm really happy with these earbuds. They have a nice balanced sound and they pass the honky tonk test (some modern headphones and speakers don't jive with pre-digital country music). I'm seeing good things for Soundcore if they keep up the good work.
Is it possible for an architect to work as an interior designer with taking the needed knowledge like the methods and techniques of using like elements of design (colors,textures,lines,shapes,lights…) also principles of design (contrast,balance,movement,pattern,scale…) , the interior design styles , and visual communication skills( mood board, materials board, 2d drawings, 3d rendering…)
Thanks
I love the music in your videos can you make a playlist on UA-cam music !
Hi Dami, thank you for your very informative video! Do you ever worked with Industrial Designers and Graphic Designers as well? A lot of hospitality and Retail clients wants custom furniture and graphic design work. What are your experiences with other creatives doing or supporting an architectural project?
Could please give more light on function, organization and order
I loved your video. I am interested in how we can fix existing buildings and making them more sustainable. But also in how houses could be made according to people’s jobs and health concerns. Would you call that interior renovation or interior architecture or even spatial design. I am mostly interested in space, inside spaces, in buildings. But also in textiles, furniture and interior building materials. I am looking into studying this but I am not sure where this fits in. Any ideas?
I’m an interior designer, working with architect. I’m very interested in sustainability, so that is a big part of my design approach. To address your question - a lot of sustainability aspects comes from how the building is constructed, starting with construction materials, insulation, windows and doors, as well as building orientation in relation to natural conditions (solar and wind). When renovating an existing building you can only do so much, but there are definitely methods and products to drastically improve the quality of life within the building from temperature and ventilation point of view. All that you most likely won’t learn during an interior design studies, as it falls within architecture domain. What you will learn is spatial design, you will learn about materials and their application, but I don’t know how much schools devote to sustainability these days. It is also quite common to hear about “green” or “eco” products, but when you look into them it turns out that they may not be so green.
Bottom line is this: if you want to do renovations without expanding the building and you want to focus on improving its functionality and internal conditions, interior designer is probably what I would go for. Then you need to dive in and look for products, do research on how particular material you want to use is made. Get clarity on what is important for you - is it only how he material going to perform for the user or are you also concerned about how it’s production impacts the environment and what happens with it after it’s not used anymore.
As for optimal living conditions in any building you need to consider ease of access for people with movement impairment, but also using zero VOC paints and products, ensuring good ventilation and thermal control (good insulation + proper windows).
I hope that helps somehow 🙂
@@Jadisek It does. Thank you for taking the time to answer my question🤗
found a new fav chan
And then you have Interior Architecture which is best of both worlds taking concepts, programs and general way of thinking from each. In my experience anyway.
Can one be both?
yup
Nobody even mentions how beautiful Dami is. 🤔
How often to designers lift others designs? Inspiration can run into cloning real quick lol
Hi Dami! Do you have a video describing the MARCH at Toronto Metropolitan University? I want to understand the course structure but their website content is not so descriptive of the courses. I want to understand your opinion about the program.
