The difference between an interior designer and an architect\u00a0Architecte !<\/h2><\/div><\/div>

What is an interior designer?<\/h3><\/div><\/div>

As interior architects, our area of expertise lies at the intersection between architecture and interior design. Unlike a DPLG architect, who focuses more on the overall structure and design of a building, our mission is to create functional and aesthetic spaces within these structures. We are also distinct from DPLG architects, although we share certain areas of expertise.<\/p><\/div><\/div>

What is a DPLG architect?<\/h3><\/div><\/div>

Architects hold the Dipl\u00f4me par le Gouvernement (DPLG), a specific French certification awarded to those who have successfully completed their architectural studies. They are there to design and supervise the construction of buildings in their entirety. Although an interior architect can also hold this certification, it is not a necessary requirement to practice as an interior architect.<\/p>

Our specialization (as interior designers) lies in creating harmonious interior spaces, taking into account the specific needs of our customers and bringing our design expertise to bear.<\/p>

The role of the interior designer from the earliest stages of the project …<\/h2><\/div><\/div>

From the outset of a project, our role is to imagine and design spaces that meet our customers’ needs and aspirations, beyond the technical\/architectural aspect. We work closely with them to understand their expectations, constraints and personal tastes. Through in-depth discussions, we draw up preliminary plans and sketches that serve as the basis for the realization of the project.<\/p>

Our aim is to create unique, functional spaces that reflect our customers’ personalities and lifestyles, while optimizing the use of available space. This also includes careful consideration of the functionality of the spaces. For example, we take into account aspects such as sunlight, natural light and room layout to promote our customers’ day-to-day well-being. As a result, we often recommend layouts that go beyond the architectural aspect, emphasizing comfort and harmony in every living space.<\/p>
