Each semester the same topics recycled themselves \u2013lower the drinking age!\u2014 but there was one that had a surprising amount of recursion.<br \/>\nBased on anecdotal evidence, there\u2019s some pent-up ferocity toward interior decorators.<br \/>\nA typical interior design student would roll her eyes when someone compared her major, and hopefully profession, to interior decorators. It went something like this:<br \/>\n\u201cNo, I don\u2019t just decorate rooms! I\u2019m earning a degree. There\u2019s a lot more to it.\u201d<br \/>\nFair enough.<br \/>\nBased on my extensive knowledge, gleaned from students and the Internet, I\u2019ve learned this much. Don\u2019t ever\u2014ever\u2014call an interior designer an interior decorator\u2014not unless you want to see what it looks like to \u201cHulk out.\u201d<br \/>\nHere\u2019s what I know about the two similarly named housing jobs: Interior designers are concerned with planning, functional design, and effective use of space. Interior decorators are tasked with turning interior space \u2013such as my gym-shoe-covered living room\u2014into something that won\u2019t scare off my girlfriend.<br \/>\nGot the difference?<br \/>\nNeither did I. To clear up the headache, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.movoto.com\">Movoto Real Estate<\/a> asked me to figure it out.<br \/>\n&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>Everything Has Its Place<\/h2>\n<p>To accomplish my task I turned to the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ncidq.org\/\">National Council for Interior Design Qualification<\/a>. The national organization put it this way:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;Interior design includes a scope of services performed by a professional design practitioner, qualified by means of education, experience and examination, to protect and enhance the health, life safety, and welfare of the public.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>If you didn\u2019t fully read the last part, I\u2019ll point something out: Interior designers \u201cprotect and enhance the health, life safety, and welfare of the public.\u201d<br \/>\nThey\u2019re certifiable heroes.<br \/>\nI\u2019m only partially kidding.<br \/>\nIn my&#8211;and by extension Movoto\u2019s&#8211;quest to get to the bottom of the not-so-semantic difference between the two, I spoke with <a href=\"http:\/\/www.adessointeriordesign.com\/\">Mary Jane Grigsby<\/a>, president of NCIDQ, who acknowledged the general public confusion over the two professions&#8211;often to the ire of interior designers.<br \/>\n<div style=\"width: 210px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" title=\"Mary Jane Grigsby\" src=\"https:\/\/s3.amazonaws.com\/movotoblog\/2012\/08\/images\/Mary+Jane+resized.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"200\" height=\"300\" \/><p class=\"wp-caption-text\">Courtesy of Mary Jane Grigsby, presient of NCIDQ<\/p><\/div><br \/>\n\u201cMost people feel that interior decorators and interior designers are all the same: it\u2019s just a different word for the same thing,\u201d Grigsby said. \u201cIt\u2019s really our fault for not putting it at the top of the list to educate the public. We bring so much to the table, but unfortunately that\u2019s not how it\u2019s thought of.\u201d<br \/>\nShe explained that interior designers are more akin to interior architects.<br \/>\n\u201cTo me, how people think of decorating is that it makes something pretty; it\u2019s aesthetically pleasing,\u201d she said. \u201cAn interior designer does all that too, but we bring more to the table. What I\u2019m talking about is making sure the choices are correct for the place, the time, the people, the structure.\u201d<br \/>\nThis translates to a number of things. An interior designer might evaluate a project, and items associated with a project, for:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>durability<\/li>\n<li>acoustic properties<\/li>\n<li>cleanability<\/li>\n<li>flame retardancy<\/li>\n<li>allergens<\/li>\n<li>toxicity<\/li>\n<li>off-gassing properties<\/li>\n<li>ADA standards<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>On the other hand, interior decorators evaluate finishes based only on color, style, and texture. They basically spruce up someone\u2019s digs. For instance if you happen to own a small apartment, an interior decorator will be able to offer tips on how to decorate the room so it feels more spacious.<br \/>\n<\/br><br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/s3.amazonaws.com\/movotoblog\/2012\/08\/images\/interior-decorator-title.png\" title=\"Versus \" class=\"aligncenter\" width=\"300\" height=\"152\" \/><br \/>\n<\/br><br \/>\nIn a professional life interior decorators are good for anything where aesthetics trump functionality. This might be staging a house or model homes.<br \/>\nThis second type of designer also happens to be the more recognizable of the two. Look at any shelf in a grocery store or turn on HGTV and you\u2019ll see that interior decorators saturate the airwaves and the \u201cinter-waves.\u201d<br \/>\nBut they are definitely not the same. They are close. But definitely not the same.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"excerpt\" src=\"http:\/\/s3.amazonaws.com\/movotoblog\/2012\/08\/images\/interior-decorator-title.png\" alt=\"Interior Designers v.
