Interior Designer Jobs in Oak Brook, IL

An Interior Designer plays a crucial role in the real estate industry by enhancing the aesthetic appeal and functionality of interior spaces, and thus increasing property value. They draft layout designs, choose color schemes, lighting, furniture, and other decorative elements, aiming to create an atmosphere that matches the client's needs and preferences. They also plan and supervise projects to ensure they meet the set standards and timelines. Moreover, they collaborate with architects, contractors, and clients to ensure the successful execution of designs. A skilled Interior Designer has the ability to transform a simple property into a highly desirable piece of Real Estate, and can therefore potentially increase its marketability and value.

Essential skills for an Interior Designer include creativity, communication, problem-solving, and project management. Knowledge in using design software such as AutoCAD and SketchUp is also necessary. As for certifications, a degree in Interior Design is typically required. Many states also require licensure or registration, which often involves passing the National Council for Interior Design Qualification (NCIDQ) exam. Prior to becoming an Interior Designer, individuals may work in roles such as an Interior Design Assistant, Architectural Drafter, or Furniture Designer. These roles provide valuable experience in drafting designs, coordinating with suppliers, and managing renovation projects.
