There’s big ones, small ones, design and build ones or just straight up designers like us. There are those that only specialize in retail design, or restaurant interior design or commercial interior design. Then there are those that only do residential interior design.
However, the best companies are the ones that showcase the following traits or abilities:
A Proven Track Record
Simply check out the company’s portfolio. If the portfolio is full of completed projects, then this is a good sign. If however the portfolio is only fully of renders or a small amount of projects, then you should be concerned. Especially if the interior design company has been around for a few years.
A good portfolio is a great for many reasons. You can have a point of contact to reference the work. As well as be rest assured that your interior design company has the experience with deliveries.
Renders Against Final Interior Design Delivery
A really good sign of a top interior design firm is that they are a “full service agency”. This can mean a few things. The two main are, can they deliver post contract? As in managed the implementation of the design with the contractor. We’re seeing it more and more with our clients. They’re wanting us to handle the project from beginning to end. That includes, managing the full tender process to find a contractor to implement the works. To then managing the contractor throughout the duration of the project. This included signing off the design progress. In addition to approving the materials and coordinating all of the finishes and FF&E for the project. This is something that we are doing more and more often.
Full Service Interior Design agencies
Another string to the bow of being a full service design agency is being able to offer branding and graphic design services. Now more than ever branding and graphic design is merging more and more with interior design. At Studio EM we have a full branding department. Since we brought this into the studio in 2017 our projects have gone to the next level. We can now create fully immersive projects where the brand and interiors combine effortlessly. Telling one succinct story, as opposed to having an interior design dictated to by the brand. Or vice versa.
Testimonials / Press
Still in doubt? Dig deeper. If you want to make sure you’re working with one of the best interior design companies in the business, simply Google them outside of their website. If they have a lot of press and some of the top awards, then you’re in good hands. The top interior designers are often the ones call upon for opinion pieces. Or ranked in the top 50 industry power lists. These are the designers that are constantly producing great work and being recognized for it.
