| Interior Redesign is the art of using what people have in their homes to transform their spaces, without the need to purchasing new furniture. After an Interior Redesign, the space becomes more functional and beautiful when the homeowners furnishings and accessories relate together in a more cohesive manner. This discipline recognizes the existing space and marries the architecture, furnishings and the accessories to create an attractive, engaging home. Sometimes called a "One Day Room Makeover," Redesign is often viewed as an affordable alternative to "start from scratch" Interior Design. | |||
| Redesign has perhaps been around for the ages, from the Asian form of Feng Shui, to stories and first hand accounts of a talented Grandmother, Aunt, or other, "just knowing" what to do to make a room look fabulous. Interior Redesign was pioneered in the industry today by Carole Talbott who appeared on ] in 1993, with her philosophy of Visual Coordination. A huge interest was generated when she improved a home dramatically, without spending a dime. Many people became interested, and Carole gave classes, and created a guide, Decorating for Good, published in 1999. | |||
| This spawned a slew of Visual Coordinators who then taught other students. One group spearheaded by Marie Kinnaman, started a networking group in Palm Springs that became IRIS, the Interior Redesigners Industry Specialists, a not-for-profit redesign organization, that has grown to over 800 members Currently, Sandy Dixon of Denver Colorado currently serves as Executive Director. | |||
| Lauri Ward started a group called IRN Interior Refiners Network. and Real Estate enhancing was born from this idea. | |||
| This was all before HGTV. Since then many shows have been created by HGTV including Design on a Dime. Decorating Cents, Designed to sell, The House Doctor <sub>tm</sub> - an English TV show. Redesign has generated many articles in many newspapers across America, England and Canada and is gaining in momentum as a recognized method of Design. There are many certified training programs offered, as well as many Interior Design schools offering classes in Redesign. | |||
