The Difference Between an Interior Designer and Interior Decorator
Many people use the terms "interior designer" and "interior decorating" interchangeably, but these professions differ in critical ways.
Interior design is the art and science of understanding people's behavior to create functional spaces within a building. Decoration is the furnishing or adorning of a space with fashionable or beautiful things. In short, interior designers may decorate, but decorators do not design.
Interior designers apply creative and technical solutions within a space that are functional, attractive and beneficial to the client's quality of life and culture.
In Florida, interior designers have to be licensed and have their formal education and training documented. They are also required to earn the NCIDQ Certification to demonstrate their experience and qualifications. By contrast, interior decorators require no formal training or licensure.
