The RIBA Domestic Professional Services Contract 2020: Interior Design Services has been devised as an agreement between an Interior Designer and a consumer Client relating to work to the Client’s own home, including renovations and extensions, provided that the Client has elected to enter into the agreement in their own name, ie. not as a limited company or legal entity or where the property will be let. The contract is suitable for commissions for simple domestic interior design projects of any value. It may not be suitable or sufficiently comprehensive for complex projects. For these projects the Client and the Interior Designer should take appropriate legal advice on alternative legal terms. Under the CDM Regulations 2015, on interior design projects where the Interior Designer is required or chooses to undertake, or subcontract, some building interior decoration work, a Principal Designer must be appointed to plan, manage, monitor and coordinate health and safety in the Pre-construction Phase of a project; and a Principal Contractor must be appointed to take control over the Construction Phase of the project and to plan, manage, monitor and coordinate the health and safety during the Construction Phase. This contract has the option for the Interior Designer to be appointed as the Principal Designer and/or the Principal Contractor. The RIBA/BIID Domestic Professional Services Contract 2020: Interior Design Services is not suitable for works where the property is to be let or for commercial or residential work undertaken for business clients, including charities, religious organisations, not-for-profit bodies, or where the Client is a public authority. The RIBA recommends the use of the RIBA/BIID Concise Professional Services Contract 2020: Interior Design Services for commercial projects.
