How to find the best interior designers in Malaysia

Everyone loves a well-designed and beautiful home. But interior designers don't just beautify a space; they make it functional too. That's why a good interior designer needs to think beyond aesthetics.

For example, who will live in the space? What are your daily activities? What possessions do you have? These and other questions will need to be explored so that your interior designer can come up with a design that truly works for you.

During the interior design process, they will go through an initial consultation, create design concepts, 3D drawings, planning, cost estimation, and budgeting. They will also show you material, colour and fabric samples to zoom into the ones you like. Once the design is settled, an interior designer can also oversee the renovation itself.

Get a sense of their work attitude and personality

A face-to-face meeting allows you to gauge the professionalism of the ID and the chemistry that might or might not exist between both parties. Well organised, resourceful and proactive are among the traits that you should be looking for in the potential ID.

Compare quotation

Based on the discussion that you’ve had with the ID, request for an itemised quotation for all the work that they will do. Should they plan to hire an external contractor to do some of the work, get an itemised quotation for that particular job as well. That way, you’ll have a room to look for other third party contractors too.
