Pronunciation

Noun

designer (plural designers)

  1. A person who designs something, or who designs things as a profession.
    • 2007 January 25, Suzanne Gannon, “For the High-End Bathroom, Something Unexpected”, in The New York Times‎:
      While the thought of a home urinal may seem vaguely “Animal House,” Mr. Scherer’s interior designer, Ashley Astleford, wasn’t surprised by his request. This was the second time in the last few months that she was asked to install a urinal in a luxury residential project, and she said she knows many other designers and architects who have been specifying home urinals in their projects.
