BC Interior and Landscape Designers - Overview

Interior designers and Landscape architects/designers play an important role in achieving both the needs and desires of a contruction project by applying their technical knowledge and aesthetic sense. While creating stunning room designs and landscape solutions is their goal, a firm knowledge of health, safety, building codes and training that can integrate human needs is also required.

Initially associated with residential interiors only, the interior design profession has evolved into a profession that now services a wide range of corporate offices, hotel, restaurant, institutional and related clients. The services interior designers provide to customers include programming, space planning, colour and furniture selection using knowledge of construction, building systems, equipment, materials and building codes.

By integrating human needs into the natural environment through the creation of a functional, aesthetic and economically viable design, landscape architects/ designers are able to create and shape our exterior worlds. This can be seen in the design and planning of physical sites such as parks, recreational areas, resorts and public spaces. The use of landscape architects/ designers in all kinds of construction projects has grown steadily over the years and is now considered integral to achieving the overall design objectives of construction projects of all size.

Both interor designers and landscape architects/ designers can be found not only in many of BC's larger cities such as Vancouver, Victoria, Kamploops, Kelowna, Nanaimo, Campbell River, Prince George and Prince Rupert but many smaller communities as well.
