What is Interior Architecture?

In our latest blog we discuss interior architecture, what it means and the benefits of working with an interior architect when designing interior spaces.

Interior architecture is a combination of both form and function and ensures the design of interior spaces focuses equally on both aesthetics and rationale.  

Combining aesthetics and function

Interior architecture is centered on designing interior spaces that are functional, comfortable and visually appealing while taking into account the needs of the occupants and the overall design of the building.

To simplify even more, it combines elements of interior design, architecture, structure and materials.

Working with an interior architect:

Working with an interior architect has many benefits and can help create a stunning and functional interior space. Essentially interior architects are responsible for designing spaces that meet the specific needs of the client whilst adhering to the appropriate building regulations. They use their knowledge of materials, construction methods and building systems to create interior spaces that are aesthetically pleasing, safe and functional. This includes designing the layout of the space, selecting materials and finishes, specifying furniture and fixtures and creating lighting plans.

Taking the client's needs into account

Interior architecture has a significant impact on the interior space and working with a qualified, RIBA chartered architect will open a world of possibilities and  provide a fresh and unique perspective on the design of your interior space.

In addition to creating functional and visually appealing spaces, interior architects also take into account environmental factors, such as energy efficiency and sustainability and they use their knowledge of building systems and materials to create spaces that are environmentally friendly and sustainable.

Interior architecture is an essential part of the design process and it requires a balance of creativity, technical knowledge, and practical skills to create spaces that are both functional and beautiful.
