It is a creative procedure where research and data analysis is used in an aesthetic intervention, specializing and going deeper into the small scale, so as to complete the architectural synthesis. All of the above are characterized by a man-centered theorem aiming to satisfy the needs of the user, both physical and spiritual. The Interior Designer has high level aesthetics and culture, design ability, knowledge of the properties of lighting, materials and their applications, ability to analyse the operation and composition of interior space.
