Interior Design Planning

Interior design planning is the process of creating a functional and aesthetically pleasing interior space. It involves the selection and arrangement of furniture, decor, lighting, cabinetry and other elements to achieve a desired look and feel.

Interior design planning takes into account the purpose of the space, the needs and preferences of the occupants, and the overall design aesthetic.

Overall, interior design planning is a critical component of creating functional and beautiful spaces. It requires a combination of creativity, technical skill, and attention to detail to achieve a successful design that meets the needs of the occupants and enhances the overall aesthetic of the space.

Remodel vs. Renovation

No matter which term you use, there’s a good chance whoever you’re talking to knows what you’re referring to, but have you ever stopped and wondered if you’re using the correct word? Or if the contractors, designers, paint pros, and other experts you’re working with think you’re unfamiliar with the process because you’re using the wrong word?

Is there a difference between a remodel and a renovation? Well, it depends on who you ask.

Technically, a renovation and remodel are defined differently. While a remodel changes the form of something (like adding a new shower to an existing bathroom), a renovation focuses more on restoring something old into good repair (fixing up a creaky floor, for example)
 
It is making subtle, very pointed changes in order to turn [a space] into something that functionally makes sense is what renovation and remodeling may mean. 
 
Whether you call it a renovation or a remodel, one thing’s for sure: It’s important to plan your project with care. One of the biggest tips to consider is,  for undergoing your home project is to pay attention to the rooms you use the most (and least!) and spend accordingly.

Interior Detailing

Interior detailing is the process of designing and specifying the decorative elements and finishes within an interior space. This includes selecting and specifying items such as wall and floor finishes, trim details, lighting fixtures, window treatments, and furnishings. Interior detailing is focused on the aesthetic and functional aspects of the interior design.

The level of detail involved in interior detailing can vary depending on the project and the client’s needs, but typically involves careful consideration of materials, color schemes, textures, and patterns to create a customized and unique design that meets the client’s expectations.

Kitchen and Bathroom Designs

Kitchen and bathroom designs are specialized areas of interior design that focus on creating functional and visually appealing spaces for cooking, cleaning, and grooming. These designs involve the selection and placement of fixtures, appliances, and materials, as well as consideration of space, flow, and user needs. A successful kitchen or bathroom design requires attention to detail, knowledge of building codes, and a cohesive style that complements the overall aesthetic of the home or commercial space.

Now the principal designer for the firm, he has established himself as a preeminent designer in Manila. His inherent understanding of space, architecture, design style and furniture translates to every project handled by the firm. He blends the contemporary with antiques and traditional designs to create a fresh look that is intrinsically innovative and new. This diverse experience has culminated in the establishment of their new firm Villanueva Interior Designs Associates.
