What is the right thing for a cabinet designer to change careers?

Home furnishing custom designers in this industry usually need more than one year of work experience to get started, and the monthly salary of more than 10,000 yuan is not a problem, but it is linked to the sales performance of the shopping mall. Running around every day in the measuring tape, renderings, double rulers, installation and other links, it is indeed very exercised. But those who can calm down and stay in the mall are mainly responsible for reviewing renderings, placing orders and reviewing orders in the later stage, which is the work of the design director.

Some people who want to go out and break through, but also with the help of the sales network, go to travel in disguise, after all, the technology is excellent, and there are people to rob them. A shopping mall designer I know has changed several shopping malls in recent years, and now he is in a provincial capital in the west, but his income has not decreased at all. There are also some designers who went to the group headquarters to be design training teachers, after all, they are too proficient in technology and software.

As a designer of custom furniture, you are the most familiar with the entire production process and production process, and I suggest that you do not change careers, but take advantage of it, and you will earn several times more salary. Why? Custom furniture is a kind of personalized customization, and the style structure of each product is designed according to the customer's preferences.

The process of customizing furniture is that the salesperson takes the order and then sends the designer out to make a plan. This increases the cost of time and cumbersome processes, and also leads to the loss of orders. Because most salespeople are not familiar with design, they will encounter many obstacles when communicating with customers, because they can't draw drawings on the spot.

Custom furniture designers change careers are not as good as upgrading themselves to be a custom designer of the whole wood, because there are more and more high-end customers, and now there are a lot of custom wooden doors that are even the wall panels, wardrobes, and background walls are customized together, especially the villa mansion is the whole wood custom design, which is a high-end customer who can enhance their contacts and circles, and now the weakness of the decoration company or design company is the whole wood, if you become an experienced whole wood designer (especially deepening) absolutely good prospects.

Let's start by looking at whether you want to give up design altogether, or if you want to do something else! At present, the market demand for furniture designers is still quite large. The analysis is that the decision to change careers is because the salary is not good, the salary is not high, or there are no development prospects, and in this highly competitive society, it is easy to be eliminated if you are not in the field you are good at!

Don't think about a mountain and a mountain high, unless it's something you're good at. The furniture designer personally recommends that you can open your own furniture store on your own! Because this is your field, you have a better chance of success, and if you can't, you can also consider interior design!

If you are interested, you can engage in interior soft decoration designer, soft decoration is important for the matching of colors, the overall interior style because you have been engaged in furniture design for many years, you have a certain understanding of the needs of different customers, and you have certain different opinions on design aesthetics, so you can try to engage in this job.

Just imagine, if you understand design and craftsmanship, it is quite smooth to communicate with customers. On-site drawing, on-site changes according to the customer's ideas. There are also for production enterprises, what they need most is your kind of talent, if the success rate of your designer to go out to take orders is much higher than the sales staff who do not understand the design, so now many businesses and factories have also adopted this way, on the hiring of designers and sales, they would rather give two positions of salary to one person, so as to greatly improve efficiency and reduce costs.

If you want to change careers, it is better to design and lead the construction team yourself. It's not easy to be able to do what you love. Even if you change careers and make some money.

Slowly you will get tired too. After all, disliking is a burden. Besides, if you change careers and change careers, you can make money.

After a few years, all the time was wasted, and in the end, my expertise was wasted. You're a few years behind everyone else.

A shopping mall designer mastered the process and materials, opened a small processing factory, made a real estate brand, and started a business. A student feels that it is still very limited, and to a certain extent, he is still a draftsman, after all, the process and materials are drawn according to the company's requirements, and there is nothing to break through, only to pick out the details. I went to a home improvement company and forced myself to develop in the direction of a home improvement designer.

Only when you know how to do it, you can know how to design. This must be more to the workshop site to learn, to see how the carpenter master does.

Learn to put drawings, planes, elevations. These are the primers. Very easy to learn. I really can't follow it. Keep in mind some of the usual dimensions, such as baseboards, floor cabinet heights, worktop heights, etc.

No matter how small the apartment is, the kitchen is also indispensable. Compared with the standard kitchen, the small apartment does not have enough space for it to "squander", so to create a warm and comfortable small kitchen, you need to pay attention to the space, the style of the cabinets enough, the accessories enough personality, and the overall atmosphere is fashionable enough. If you want to turn your small kitchen into a large space, you can see if any of these experiences are worth learning.

Idea 1: The hidden cabinet space is knowledgeable.

According to the characteristics of the small kitchen, the designer nailed hooks and hanging rods on the cabinet door panel to hang items. There are also some appliances that can also be built into the cabinet.

Idea 2: Make full use of the remaining space between the base cabinet and the wall cabinet.

Install the wall shelves here, place sterilizers, microwave ovens, or install shelves, hooks, storage plates, cups, spice bottles, shovels, spoons, so as to avoid them occupying the countertop; Of course, such an arrangement needs to be carefully measured and designed according to ergonomics, otherwise it is easy to hinder the housewife, so with the help of a professional designer, it will save a lot of cost and trouble.

Idea 3: Use forgotten corners.

There are always little nooks and nooks in the kitchen. In a slightly larger corner, housewives will set up a small table or a few chairs that are convenient for dining, the designer recommends choosing a folding or length-adjustable table with a cabinet, which can be folded when not in use, and a stackable chair that can be stored in the cabinet or at the bottom of the table; Smaller corners are housed with sliding tall cabinets, which have a high storage capacity and greatly reduce the need for space.

Idea 4: Don't ignore the flow of space.

When working in the kitchen, it is often necessary to have some items available at any time, and the limited space in the small kitchen determines that these items can only be put inside the cabinet, which is very troublesome to access. This problem can be solved by using a small trolley with a cabinet. Put some commonly used items in the trolley, and push them back into the cabinet after use, in order to save more space, the tablet can be set on the top layer of the trolley as a temporary operating table.

In addition to the above-mentioned design of extending the small space, the overall kitchen design concept is introduced, the small kitchen can actually be arranged very beautifully and gorgeously, completely erasing the defects of crowding and clutter, and the overall kitchen designed by Oppai strives to reflect its functionality and practicality in a limited small space. Built-in handles, high or low countertops, wide and narrow countertops, smooth line design, simple, clean, and complete functions, covering almost all electrical appliances in the kitchen, ovens, and built-in microwave ovens.

Cabinet design is still relatively promising.

1. There are many cabinet manufacturers now, and there is a lot of room for choice;

2. Cabinet design and custom furniture design are the same, and it is easy to further transform or expand the business field in the future.

3. With the acceleration of the country's urbanization, in the future, the decoration of second- and third-tier cities and some suburban counties will choose the overall cabinet, and the market prospect is still very large.

Now it is normal for a good cabinet design to earn 10,000 a month.
