Interior Design Drawing
If you know anything about interior design, please answer this question ?
I want to go into interior design. I take art classes and drawing is one of my talents.
I have a friend who also wants to go into interior design. She doesn’t admit it, but she knows she can’t draw to save her life. She tells me that you don’t need to draw well to be an interior designer.
I am starting to think that I’m wasting my parent’s money and my time in taking art classes when I don’t even need it.
So, my question is – do I need to draw well to be a successful interior designer?
Hi there,
I’ve been an interior designer for about 19 years.
While it’s helpful for sure in creating sketched layouts for clients
where you’d be able to show the colors, fabrics and textures, it’s not necessary nowadays.
There are great programs out there that can help virtually sketch out rooms for clients.
A lot of designers cannot draw at all, but have teams of folks who do these things for them as well.
If you enjoy drawing now, it will help. Often times I wish I could draw
rooms out for clients. Or at least quickly sketch things for them in a manner that looks more professional and I’ve often times considered taking art classes to better assist me with this. It does help with visualization for the clients and for designers who want to go out on their own without having to pay a sketch artist / assistant.
I wish you the very, very best with your studies!
Keep drawing!!
Best,
