Book Description

As a professional interior designer, before you begin work on any interior design project, you must think carefully about every possible situation that might crop up and affect the progress of your work. The only way to avoid nasty situations and dissatisfaction is by clearly, in a letter of agreement, stating out your responsibilities as a designer, what is expected of your client, and how you are to going to successfully fulfil each of the expectations. Having a clearly written contractual agreement is not only valuable, it will, most importantly, protect your rights as a designer. Having a signed agreement will prevent unnecessary rancour and/or miscommunication and at the same time, protect you from delays, unwarranted requests, or higher-than-paid-for expectations. This book "Important Clauses to Add to An Interior Design Contract Agreement - Significance of Signed Pacts Between Interior Designers and Clients" points out the important clauses that you must clearly state in an interior design agreement. And let's face it, interior designers do face potential liabilities. If you have ever been in doubt about the importance of contract agreements and what clauses are vital to add, this book explains what is required and why. Some of these clauses protects not only you as a designer, but also your client as well. So, in the event that there is disagreement or dispute between both parties, a formal letter of agreement becomes the saving grace. And as long as everything is spelt out in clear terms and both parties have signed it, you cannot be held legally responsible for any action or inaction.
