As in any profession or industry Designers and Commercial Design Companies come in all manner of types, sizes and experience. From an individual designer working on his own to a major design organisation and all the many shapes and sizes between, the selection of which one to use must start with the nature of the project that the client wishes to use a designer on. Every project is unique in it's own right and needs to be matched to a designer that is going to give you the best results.
An experienced commercial designer is a very flexible and adaptable individual that has been trained in a very special way. Although we all see the designers work as visual result from a project brief there is a train of thought that has allowed this to happen. A designer is trained to think and to resolve problems first and their level of experience will allow them to conclude this in a visual way to produce a successful interpretation of the project brief.
Most projects fall generally into Five main design groups which are then have sub categories, this could be expanded, but as a simple list these are:
You will know doubt be looking very closely at the designers portfolio of work to find the connection with your own project brief, however, you are advised to look outside your direct field of business and experience in what the designer has undertaken for others. If for instance you require your finance office to be designed, don't just look for Designers that have done lots of Finance Offices, you could be missing out. There could be a Designer that is just right for the project with lots of experience and talent in other business areas, but has not done a Finance Office - yet! When it comes down to it, a good Office and Workplace Designer can design to anything, it matters very little if it is a Control Room for a Waste Disposal Plant or a Office Suite for a Fashion Company, the principles of good Design and Space Planning sweep across the whole commercial sector.
Lighting plays an important part of creating the right environment in any spa interior, your designer should be able to demonstrate to you that they have experience in lighting design and lighting control - the best interior in the world will not look anything unless it is lit correctly. It is extra important for spas as the whole spa experience for the customer can be destroyed if atmosphere is not conducive to the treatment being given. In addition to creating the working lighting for a spa, there is also the area of lighting for colour therapy which form part of the health spar treatment and experience. Your design needs to know the fundamentals of colour therapy and provide a programmable system as a room or stand along installation.
