residential design
Dwelling layout planning
Residential design is the planning and styling of private living spaces—houses, apartments, condominiums.
The term encompasses both architecture (the structure itself) and interior design (layout, finishes, furnishings).
A residential designer works on homes rather than commercial or industrial buildings: She specializes in residential design for coastal properties.
