"I learned at the Beaux-Arts that a room has six facades, and you can't ignore any of them"  -- Juan Pablo Molyneux

Interior Architecture cannot be separated from the 'exterior'.  The same level of attention and detail, probably even more, goes towards the designing of interior spaces.   Beginning from the architectural layout/ floorplan, interior space is conceived initially in the planning process and is absolutely integral to  the overall concept.   Exterior form may be viewed as a 'clothing' over interior space; it responds to the Owner's specific living requirements. Exterior 'style' may be primary however, especially in some Period designs, setting the overall theme of the home which (optimally) should be carried out by the same hand inside.  The architect is the premier designer of your home.  He or she must be able to conceive and communicate interior spaces--with the same regard for attention to detail and import as the exterior -- for analysis and approval through drawings such as elevations and perspectives or computer models, and possibly small scale mockups depending on the complexity of the design.  One cannot separate the interior design from the exterior except perhaps in large scale commercial projects such as high-rise buildings.  The home is too personal and intimate to be separated amongst several designers.
