ACI Service: Interior Detailing
What is Interior Architectural Detailing?
Interior Architectural detailing is the process of creating the detailed drawings and specifications that are used to construct a building. It includes everything from the layout of the walls and floors to the placement of the light fixtures and doorknobs.
Architectural detailing is an important part of the interior design process and typically happens with Floorplanning and 3D Rendering. It ensures that the design is executed correctly and that the finished space is functional and aesthetically pleasing.
How We Use Creative Details to Create Impactful Interiors
We use creative architectural details in construction to create impactful interiors in a number of ways. We might use:
Unique materials and finishes: We might use unusual materials, such as reclaimed wood or marble, to create a sense of luxury or warmth. We might also use finishes, such as high-gloss paint or textured wallpaper, to create a specific look or feel.
Custom millwork: We might create custom millwork, such as built-in cabinets or shelving, to add functionality and beauty to a space.
Lighting: We might use lighting to create different moods and atmospheres in a space. For example, we might use recessed lighting to create a soft, ambient light, and track lighting to highlight specific features.
Artwork: We might use artwork to add personality and interest to a space. We might choose artwork that reflects the client's interests or that complements the overall design of the space.
Detailed Interiors Before the Furnishings Are Selected
We can create impactful interiors before the furnishings are selected by considering the following factors:
The concept and colors: The concept and colors of the space will set the tone for the entire design. We will choose materials and finishes that complement the concept and colors.
The functionality of the space: The space needs to be functional for the client's needs. We will consider the client's lifestyle and activities when designing the space.
The flow of traffic: The flow of traffic in the space is important for safety and convenience. We will create a layout that allows people to move easily through the space.
The budget: We will work with the client to create a design that fits their budget.
By considering these factors, we can create impactful interiors that the client will love for years to come. We believe that architectural detailing is an essential part of the interior design process. It allows us to create spaces that are both functional and aesthetically pleasing.
