14 reasons why you should hire an Interior Designer

Do you think interior design is expensive and only reserved for the elite? Well, the landscape is changing and hiring an Interior Designer is more accessible than ever, thanks to the development of Online Interior Design services.

So, prices to hire a designer are more affordable than they've ever been, but why else should you consider hiring one for your home?

1. Hiring an Interior Designer can save you money

So, you're paying for an additional service, yet you're saving money? How does that work? Well, we'll tell you! By hiring a designer you gain access to not only their expertise but their wide knowledge of retailers. Therefore, they are more likely to find you appropriate products at a wide range of prices so that you don't buy a beautiful piece of furniture and then come across a very similar item for £100 less the next week. 

Plus, their expertise means that you're going to get the room design right the first time around. No returns because the furniture doesn't fit, no extra purchases of paints because you decided it was the wrong colour after all and no suddenly realising the furniture you've chosen doesn't complement each other. 

If you chose to hire an Online Interior Design company like us (specifically us, we might be bias but we're the best), you would absolutely make back the money you spent on the service. 

2. They will save you time

Does your dream home feel like just that? Your dream home: a faraway figment of your imagination. The idea of updating your interiors always comes with good intentions but it nothing ever gets done because it's always pushed to the bottom of your to-do list. Does this sound familiar? If so, a designer might be the answer to making your dreams come true.

If there is no time in the day to even work out in your mind exactly what you would like to do in terms of home updates, let alone start planning and shopping, then it might be worth thinking about delegating this task. Don't worry! Delegating doesn't mean losing control and ending up with a house that doesn't feel like home. You can work collaboratively with your designer, but they do all the heavy lifting.

Everything has moved or is transitioning online and Interior Design is well into move into the 21st century. Online Interior Design services mean that using a professional Interior Designer is even more efficient and streamlined, plus, you can liaise with them from the comfort of your home, on your iPad! 

Our Designers are all super experienced, qualified and lovely.

3. A Designer will help you define your style

If you're not 100% sure on your personal style, how you want your home to look or you only know what you like (or don't like) when you see it, then it might be worth hiring a designer. 

Interior Designer's should work closely with you to firstly define your personal style and then communicate effectively with heaps of inspiration to decide the design direction for a room before anything else. Designer's are skilled at harnessing what's going on into your head and turning it into a beautiful and cohesive room design that you not only love the look of, but feels like you. 

4. You will retain sanity throughout the process!

Updating your interior can be stressful, there is no denying this. Deciding on a direction, choosing colours, planning a layout and then sourcing all the items for the room can be a massive headache. In hiring an Interior Designer you can lift that big weight off your shoulders and pass it over to capable hands. Just make sure you have an interior designer that takes your personal style, wishes and needs into account and, if you've done this, you really can't lose!

The trained eye of a designer can see the bigger picture whilst still focussing in on the smallest detail. Therefore, your entire design will be cohesive throughout. 

8. Collaboration

A good interior designer won't just take a 'brief' brief and then go on their way and design what they think you will like. They should work with you to dig a little deeper into exactly what you want and need from your home update. As a result of the collaborative process, they will be 100% sure that they have hit the nail on the head and created a design that you will adore. 

9. Clever and unique ideas

Similar to added professional insight, your designer also has loads of tricks of the trade up their sleeve which means they can offer unique and super smart suggestions. Want a wall feature but don't fancy a gallery wall or statement canvas? 

Got a difficult space that makes planning a layout an absolute nightmare? I bet your designer will have some bespoke furniture ideas that will not only solve the problem but also look fantastic whilst being incredibly functional.

Once you have access to your Interior Designer, you have access to their resources too, such as floor plan and layout tools and the visuals they create to help you envisage what your room will look like once complete. Additionally, you have access to their long list of retailers. For example, our designers work on the online My Bespoke Room database which is packed full with an abundance of retailers AND trade only suppliers.

Much like a designer's access to resources, they also have access to other professional people that can help you out. I.e. architects and trades people. Failing that, they'll definitely have advice to send you in the right direction towards who can help you out, specific to your needs and project. 

At My Bespoke Room, we have a wonderful community of over 60 designers that all regularly chat to each and swap ideas. So when you hire a designer, you're not just hiring them but the expertise of a whole team!
