Frequently Asked Questions
-
An architectural designer works on the structure, layout, and function of a home. Understands how spaces are planned, built, and connected. This includes floor plans, wall changes, ceiling heights, window placement, and how a renovation fits within building codes and permit requirements.
An interior designer focuses primarily on the look and feel of a space—furniture, finishes, colors, décor, and styling.
At INTNT Design, my work blends both.
I design spaces from the inside out. Starting with thoughtful layouts and construction-ready plans, then layering in materials, lighting, and finishes that make the home feel intentional and personal. This means clients get both strong architectural planning and beautiful interiors, all aligned under one clear vision.
Instead of hiring multiple consultants, you get a cohesive, well-coordinated design process from concept to construction.
