Designer Spaces: Kim Arledge

As part if their Guest Designer feature, we've asked each of March's Artistas to give us a peek into their scrapbooking room! Kim Arledge is sharing her personal space with us today! She says,

This is a work in progress. My scrap room was initially a dining room. 

When I started scrapbooking in January 2006, I was immediately hooked! The more supplies I bought the more space I needed. This is when I decided to convert my tiny dining room into my scrap room. As of now I am using an old 1940's dining room suite and an antique stereo to store my many many supplies and layouts.

 

I have since overflowed into an extra storage closet until I can remodel my room to better suit my needs. I figure anyone can use what they have until they can grow and fine tune the space that fits their needs. I kinda like the idea of mixing antique finds with modern day organizers. 

My goal is to eventually change out the furniture to white pieces and place hanging shelves on the wall. Regardless of what I do and don't have, this space is my sanctuary...it truly is my favorite place in the house!

Interior decoration deals with the home renovations that can be easily and quickly changed, and at lower budgets such as changing kitchen cabinets, selecting wall paper, selecting furniture and usually does not deal with structural building codes.

The modern trend in design is toward integration of previously separated specialties, especially among large firms. In the past, architects, interior designers, engineers, developers, construction managers, and general contractors were more likely to be entirely separate companies, even in the larger firms.

The interior design process follows a systematic and coordinated methodology, including research, analysis and integration of knowledge into the creative process, whereby the needs and resources of the client are satisfied to produce an interior space that fulfills the project goals.

The design work, project planning and construction work must be done correctly or it can negatively impact the rest of the house or even the land the building sits on. There are serious things to consider when designing and building additions, large scale remodels or landscaping projects.

Design-build can be as simple as using an interior designer in conjunction with the remodeling contractor. But, it is typically for projects that change the structure of the building or increase the building footprint on the property, and will require permits from the planning department.
