Use every sourcing route
Add Design Index products and materials, saved studio items or an external product link without breaking the room workflow.
INTERIOR DESIGN PRODUCT SOURCING
Source products once, then keep them connected to the project.
Bring together products from The Design Index, the studio’s reusable library and external suppliers. Save the image, source, specification and commercial information needed to move a selection from inspiration to approval, budget and order.
For interior designers who source across brand directories, supplier websites, saved products and material libraries but need one project record for the final selection.
WHAT IT CONNECTS
Product sourcing that stays connected to delivery.
The workflow keeps useful context attached to the client, project, room, product, document or financial record it belongs to.
Keep source details attached
Store the brand, supplier, link, variation, finish, dimensions, pricing and notes with the selection.
Promote selections into delivery
Move chosen items into FF&E, client review, budgeting, procurement and handover without recreating them.
HOW IT WORKS
A practical workflow from first action to clear result.
- 01
Collect possibilities
Save products to the studio library or add them directly to the relevant room board.
- 02
Compare in context
See furniture, lighting, materials, inspiration and notes beside the room’s design direction.
- 03
Confirm the selection
Send the exact model and finish for client review and preserve the decision history.
- 04
Specify and order
Carry the approved product into schedules, budget, trade requests and procurement tracking.
WHY IT MATTERS
Spend less time rebuilding information and more time running the studio.
Less product re-entry
Stop copying the same item from browser tabs into boards, spreadsheets and order trackers.
A reusable studio library
Keep trusted products available across future projects and rooms.
Better sourcing context
Know which room, client decision, supplier and order each item belongs to.
