What is the difference between interior architecture and interior design?
1 Answer
The difference between interior architecture and interior design is that one focuses on structure and the other on style. Interior architecture refers to the overall physical layout of a building, such as where its walls and ceilings are. Interior design determines how a space will look in terms of its colors, finishes, furnishings and decorative objects. Find a wide variety of furniture and home decor on 1stDibs.
