INTERIOR DECORATION
Interior design is the art and science of enhancing
the interiors, sometimes including the exterior, of a space or building, to
achieve a healthier and more aesthetically pleasing environment for the end
user. An interior designer is someone who plans, researches, coordinates, and
manages such projects. Interior design is a multifaceted profession that
includes conceptual development, space planning, site inspections, programming,
and research, communicating with the stakeholders of a project, construction
management, and execution of the design.
Interior design is the process of
shaping the experience of interior space, through the manipulation of spatial
volume as well as surface treatment for the betterment of human functionality.
In the past, interiors were put
together instinctively as a part of the process of building. The profession of
interior design has been a consequence of the development of society and the
complex architecture that has resulted from the
development of industrial processes. The pursuit of effective use of space,
user well-being and functional design has contributed to the development of the
contemporary interior design profession. The profession of interior design is
separate and distinct from the role of Interior Decorator, a term commonly used
in the US. The term is less common in the UK where the profession of interior
design is still unregulated and therefore, strictly speaking, not yet
officially a profession.
In ancient India, architects used
to work as interior designers. This can be seen from the references of
VISWAKARMA the architect - one of the gods in Indian mythology. Additionally,
the sculptures depicting ancient texts and events are seen in palaces built in
17th century India.
In ancient Egypt, "soul
houses" or models of houses were placed in tombs as receptacles for food
offerings. From these, it is possible to discern details about the interior
design of different residences throughout the different Egyptian dynasties,
such as changes in ventilation, porticoes, columns, loggias, windows, and
doors.
Throughout the 17th and 18th
century and into the early 19th century, interior decoration was the concern of
the homemaker, or an employed upholsterer or
craftsman who would advise on the artistic style for an interior space.
Architects would also employ craftsmen or artisans to complete interior design
for their buildings
