Interior Design, Done the Drafting Buddies Way
Interior design in California covers a wide range of needs - a homeowner in Los Angeles reworking a living room, a restaurant group in San Francisco planning a new dining layout, a healthcare operator in Sacramento designing a patient-friendly clinic, or a corporate office in San Jose modernizing its workspace. Whatever the project, good interior design depends on getting the fundamentals right: accurate space planning, thoughtful furniture layout, the right material and finish selection, and a clear plan before construction begins.
Drafting Buddies supports interior designers, architects, contractors, and property owners across California with the technical backbone of interior design - space planning and layout design, kitchen and bathroom design, lighting and ceiling design, custom cabinetry and millwork drawings, 3D interior rendering and visualization, and complete concept-to-construction documentation. We combine interior design sensibility with CAD, BIM, and Revit drafting expertise, so every design decision is backed by an accurate, buildable drawing - not just a mood board.
Whether you need residential interior design, commercial interior design, restaurant interior design, or a full interior design package for new construction, our California-focused team delivers interior decorating services, interior remodeling drawings, and interior design consultation built for how California homes, restaurants, offices, and hospitality spaces actually get built.

Furniture layout planning, custom furniture design coordination, and decor selection that complements your interior architecture, with drawings that specify placement, clearances, and dimensions accurately.
Space planning is the foundation of every interior design project - optimizing traffic flow, furniture layout, and room proportions for residential, commercial, and hospitality interiors of any size.
