Interior designing is a profession that is often looked down on by people who are unaware of the effect the interiors of a place has. Interiors of all places from a home to an office to a hangout place, plays a significant role in the optimized functioning of that place. In the case of a restaurant, good ambience and splendid interiors will attract customers, thereby increasing business and bringing in more profit to the place.
An interior designer designs the interior of a place to suit the consumers tastes and needs with certain constraints like space and money. He/she consults with the customer, analyses the space and comes up with a colour theme and design for the place. If the customer approves, the designer will proceed with the design or else it is reverted back to the drawing table. The interior designer will also help select the furniture for the room. From the owner’s point of view, he/she should be clear about his views, tastes and ideas in designing the interiors of a room. The interior designer should be made aware of the real life practicalities and complications in running a restaurant so that they shouldn’t come up with ideas that will adversely affect the smooth running of a restaurant.
