What is interior design drafting?

Interior design drafting is the process of creating detailed technical drawings and plans that illustrate the layout, dimensions, and features of interior spaces. These drafts help visualize the placement of furniture, fixtures, lighting, and other design elements before actual construction or renovation begins. Drafting can be done by hand or using computer-aided design (CAD) software, and is essential for communicating design concepts to clients, builders, and contractors. Accurate drafting ensures that the design is feasible, functional, and meets building codes and regulations.
