Full Service Interior Design vs Decoration

Full Service Interior Design vs Decoration:
What’s the Difference?
When searching for an interior designer in Melbourne, many homeowners ask: what is the difference between interior design and interior decoration?  
The distinction is significant — particularly for luxury renovations. 
Interior Decoration

Interior decoration focuses primarily on the aesthetic layer:

• Furniture curation
• Furniture plans & layouts 
• Styling
• Soft furnishings 
• Colour palettes

Decoration enhances an existing space without altering its structure. At Bais Design, this service is thoughtfully tailored for clients seeking a refined refresh, whether in a newly acquired residence or an established home in need of renewal. From furniture and lighting to art, objects, and soft furnishings, we curate each layer with intention, bringing warmth, cohesion, and a renewed sense of atmosphere to the space.

Full-Service Interior Design

Full-service interior design is far more comprehensive.
A luxury interior designer works alongside architects, builders and consultants to shape the space from its core. This includes:

• Reconfiguring floor plans
• Designing custom joinery
• Electrical and lighting layouts
• Bathroom design
• Kitchen design
• Material and stone specification
• Construction documentation

In high-end homes, this integrated approach ensures cohesion between the architecture and interior.

Why It Matters in Luxury Renovations

In premium apartments and private residences across Melbourne, the difference between decoration and design determines longevity.
Without technical detailing and documentation, even beautiful concepts can fall short in execution.


Full-service design ensures:

• Proportion is correct
• Materials meet seamlessly
• Lighting enhances art and architecture
• Every detail feels resolved
