Published on:06/08/2010

The BIID Interior Design Job Book is the first book to set out the professional standard for running an interior design project. Suitable for all interior designers – whether working alone or as part of a design team, and on projects of all sizes – it provides guidance for every stage of a job, from appraisal of the client’s requirements through to practical completion and payment.

Set out as a step-by-step process which dovetails with the standard procedures used by architects and contractors, it is full of practical advice and includes model letters and specimen forms which can be quickly adapted to any job in question. It also contains guidance to the legal background, a clause-by-clause explanation of the standard form of client contract, as well as an introduction to space planning. Fully endorsed by the British Institute of Interior Design, the Job Book will bring a professional rigour to the way projects run and is vital for achieving a professional edge in a competitive field. 

The Book will be available from September from www.ribabookshops.com 

Diana Yakeley and Stephen Yakeley will be talking about their new book and also signing copies at Focus 2010 at Chelsea Harbour Design Centre
