Sketching is trendy. It’s quick. It’s effective. But in most interior design institutions hand-rendering is not a compulsory skill. It’s optional. Sketching for interior designers is seen as further training in interior design business.

Sketching for interior designers is more than a skill, you demonstrate your competency and professionalism in the client’s eyes
Sketching for interior designers is an advanced and irreplaceable skill which attracts more opportunities.

So why not use it to your strength?
You might be asking yourself now, how can I learn to sketch if I don’t have an artistic background, nor can I hold a pencil properly?

Even having basic sketching skills will allow the designer to experiment with perspective, color, shape and texture during the development phase. To summarize, sketching is a skill to facilitate communication with customers and contractors.
Sketches have this magical ability not to just inspire others, but first and foremost it’s a tool to continuously inspire yourself to create exceptional work.Not everything can be put into words. Hands are our helpers.
