Will you be ready when your contractor and trades ask you for buildable plans and detailed construction docs? 😬

In this episode of Stuff Interior Designers Need To Know, Rebecca sits down with Jessica Marchant of Blue-Sky Creative to talk about one of the most important parts of a successful interior design project: technical drawings.

Rebecca asks:

1. What are technical construction drawings? 🤔
2. What is "fractional technical drawing support?" 😅
3. Why would a designer outsource this work?
4. What does fractional technical drawing support cost? 💰
5. When is outsourcing a smart way to grow your interior design business?
6. Does outsourcing your drawings mean giving up creative control?
7. Does working with Bluesky mean using a certain kind of drawing software (AutoCAD? Revit? Chief Architect?)

If you’ve been thinking about hiring someone to help with your design drawings, or wondering what it might cost to outsource this part of your job, this conversation is for you. From construction documents and AutoCAD support to managing builder communication and preventing expensive mistakes, Jessica shares exactly how technical support can help designers grow without burning out.

Enjoy!
