Can You Recommend Interior Designers Who Specialize in Both Residential and Commercial Projects?
If you are looking for an interior designer who specializes in both residential and commercial projects, Modern Interior Company offers design services for homes, businesses, hospitality spaces, restaurants, and other commercial environments. Our team has more than 10 years of experience across residential and commercial design, with the technical knowledge, creative direction, and trade partnerships needed to support a wide range of project types.
Modern Interior Company serves both residential and commercial design projects. Our team includes experienced residential designers, a commercial designer with 10 years of commercial design experience and six years in residential interiors, and specialists in styling and art installation. Together, this gives us the technical, creative, and finishing expertise to support a wide range of project types.
We also have trusted trades and partners who specialize in construction for both residential and commercial settings. That means we can help clients move from early planning and space layout to technical design details, material selections, furnishings, styling, and project coordination.
Whether you are designing a home, office, restaurant, hotel space, or commercial environment, it is important to choose a designer who understands the difference between how a space looks, how it functions, and what it must meet from a technical and code perspective.
What Should You Look for in a Residential and Commercial Interior Designer?
When choosing an interior designer for both residential and commercial projects, look for a team with experience in more than just decorating.
Interior design can include a wide range of services. Some designers focus primarily on decor, furnishings, and styling. Others are trained in more technical areas such as space planning, construction documents, material specifications, code considerations, and project coordination.
For residential and commercial projects, you often need both.
A strong design team should be able to help with the practical and technical requirements of the project while also creating a finished space that feels beautiful, intentional, and aligned with the people who use it.
Modern Interior Company Designs Both Homes and Commercial Spaces
Modern Interior Company services both residential and commercial design projects.
For residential clients, that may include remodeling, furnishing, space planning, finish selections, furniture sourcing, styling, and creating a home that feels functional, personal, and beautiful.
For commercial clients, that may include offices, hospitality spaces, restaurants, hotels, retail spaces, or other business environments where durability, flow, guest experience, branding, and code requirements are all part of the design process.
Because our team understands both types of spaces, we can help clients create interiors that are not only attractive, but also practical, durable, and appropriate for the way the space will be used.
Residential and Commercial Design Require Different Expertise
Residential and commercial interior design overlap in some ways, but they also have important differences.
Residential design is deeply personal. It is about how people live, gather, rest, cook, work, entertain, and move through their daily routines. A home should reflect the people who live there while also supporting real life.
Commercial design often has additional layers. It must consider customer experience, employee workflow, accessibility, safety, durability, brand identity, code requirements, product ratings, and the needs of larger groups of people using the space every day.
In commercial design, the products selected often need to meet specific performance standards. Fabrics, finishes, flooring, lighting, furniture, and materials may need to be rated for commercial use. The design also has to account for heavier traffic, maintenance, safety, and long-term durability.
A designer who works in both residential and commercial spaces understands how to balance beauty with performance.
Our Team Has Experience With Technical Design and Final Styling
Modern Interior Company is equipped to handle projects from the technical beginning stages all the way through the final styling details.
That range matters.
Some projects require construction documents, technical drawings, space planning, finish specifications, and coordination with contractors and trades. Other projects may focus more on furnishings, art, accessories, and the final touches that make a space feel complete.
Many projects need both.
Our team has experience with the detailed technical work needed to support a build, as well as the creative finishing work that gives a space personality, warmth, and polish. We can help with the big decisions that shape the structure of a space and the small details that make it feel finished.
Commercial Experience Matters for Larger Scale Projects
Larger commercial projects require a different level of planning and coordination.
Scale matters. A commercial space may involve more square footage, more users, more regulations, more vendors, and more layers of decision-making. The designer needs to understand how to manage complexity while still keeping the design vision clear.
Modern Interior Company’s design team brings specialized experience across both residential and commercial spaces. Alison Schutz, who joined the team in 2026, brings 10 years of commercial design experience and six years in residential interiors, including work on Topgolf locations, hotels, and restaurants.
Her background with larger-scale commercial projects adds valuable expertise to our team and allows us to better support clients who need design help in commercial, hospitality, restaurant, or business settings.
That experience helps us understand the demands of commercial projects while still bringing the thoughtful, personal approach that clients expect from a design studio.
