design consultant

Aesthetic problem solver

A design consultant is a professional hired to provide expert advice on design matters—whether for products, interiors, graphics, or brand identity.

Unlike in-house designers, consultants typically work on a project basis for multiple clients: We brought in a design consultant to redesign the office space.

The role emphasizes strategic guidance over hands-on execution.
