Question : What is modern interior design?

Answer : Modern interior design is a type of design that features simple shapes and primary colors. It also incorporates modern technology like indoor plants, solar-powered windows, and interactive TVs which allows for greater added functionality without making the space feel too cluttered or overwhelming. Modern design always takes into account the furniture layout of the living room, dining room, bedroom etc. in order to create a functional space while maximizing room usage and curate a cohesive way to live in the home. Lastly, modern interior decorating draws attention away from items by using high-contrast prints or textures as accents that add visual interest without competing for attention with the item itself.

Question : Is interior design major?

Answer : Clearing up a stereotype, Interior Design is not exclusive to females. In fact, the interior design industry is stereotypically dominated by men in commercial and retail designing since this side of the business requires heavy engineering work like plumbing and electrical assembling whereas women are usually more fit for residential designing. As such, males have a better chance at breaking into this monopoly through these avenues.
In any case, whether you're working with residential or commercial spaces, people often find it hard to distinguish between an interior designer and an architect (except that architects tend to belong to ARB).

Question : Is studying interior design hard?

Answer : Absolutely. You can get through the coursework relatively easily enough, and be great at taking design classes, but almost every designer will tell you that presenting your work in a way that clients will understand is one of the most challenging parts of the job. Designers need to remember not only what they loved about their project while it was being designed, but also what were the biggest pain points with it- think of this as managing your own designs for client feedback before anything leaves the studio. And then there's figuring out how best to communicate all those ideas so that a client isn't left confused over arrangement choices and doesn't have any second thoughts down the road because they didn't trust in your direction originally.

Question : Can kitchen cabinets be used in bathroom?

Answer : While kitchen cabinets can technically be used in the bathroom, it is not recommended as they are not built to withstand the high humidity and moisture levels that are typically present in bathrooms. This can lead to the cabinets warping or developing mold and mildew over time. If you're set on using kitchen cabinets in your bathroom, make sure to properly seal them first to help protect against water damage.

Question : When to replace kitchen cabinets?

Answer : When they become old and outdated, or when you want to update the look of your kitchen. If the cabinets are in good condition, you can simply refinish them.

Question : How did you choose your interior design university?

Answer : I ultimately chose my interior design university based on a combination of location, cost, and program offerings. I originally began my search by looking at all of the schools in my home state, but quickly realized that the out-of-state tuition costs were prohibitively high. Once I narrowed my search to just in-state options, I then looked at which programs had the best reputation and overall curriculum. From there, it was simply a matter of finding the school that offered everything I was looking for at a price I could afford. While it wasn't an easy decision, I'm confident that I made the best choice for me and my future career in interior design.

Question : How to choose kitchen paint color?

Answer : Before you start, take into account the natural light in your kitchen. You want to choose a paint color that will complement the light, not compete with it.

Next, think about the style of your kitchen. If you have a modern kitchen, you'll want to choose a modern paint color. If your kitchen has a more traditional look, go with a traditional paint color.

Finally, consider your personality and taste. Are you someone who prefers bright colors or neutral colors? Do you like dramatic or subtle shades? Once you've answered these questions, you'll be able to narrow down your options and find the perfect kitchen paint color for your home.

Question : How to design a garden layout?

Answer : There are a few things to consider when designing a garden layout. First, think about the shape of your garden. If you have a small space, you may want to consider using a square or rectangle shape. If you have a larger space, you may want to use more of an L-shape or U-shape.

Next, think about what type of plants you want to grow. Some plants need more sun than others, so you'll need to plan accordingly. Also, be sure to take into account the size of the plants when planning your layout. You don't want to put a big tree in the middle of your garden if there's not enough room for it to grow!

Question : How do you feel about using natural elements in interior design?

Answer : Natural elements can bring a touch of the outdoors inside your home, and using them in your interior design can create a calming and soothing atmosphere. I love using natural elements in my own home – from bamboo blinds to stone vases, they help to create a space that feels like an oasis away from the hustle and bustle of daily life.

Of course, it’s important to use natural elements in moderation – too much of anything can be overwhelming. But when used tastefully, natural element can help you fashion a stylish and serene haven within your own four walls.
