Interior Design Studio Apps: Client Approvals, Sourcing Lists and Project Budgets

Mythex lets an interior design studio build a portfolio site with before-and-after projects, a client portal where each item is approved with a date and the budget updates as you go, quotes that list products with lead times, and a dashboard of hours against fees. Describe your studio in chat, check the preview and publish.

A long chain of decisions and purchases

A design project starts with ideas and ends with a delivery van. In between come concept boards, floor plans, a sourcing list of sofas, fabrics, lighting and joinery, supplier trade accounts, client approvals and trades on site. A sofa takes twelve weeks; a custom cabinet longer. Mood boards live on Pinterest, sourcing lists in spreadsheets, approvals in email, and photos in shared folders nobody can find. When the wrong colour arrives months later, nobody is sure what was approved. Spring and the run-up to the holidays bring clients who want rooms finished by a date. What helps is one place per project where every item has an image, a price, a lead time, an approval and a delivery status.

• Mood boards and floor plans per room
• Every item approved or rejected with a date
• Lead times next to prices
• Budget spent against the agreed total
• Deposits before furniture is ordered
• Hours logged against fixed fees

What you can build for interior design studios

Approve the sofa, see the budget move

Each client sees mood boards and floor plans per room, product selections with approve and reject buttons, order status and delivery dates, and budget spent against the agreed total. Every approval is dated, with comments.

Build a client portal for my interior design studio. Each project has rooms with mood boards and floor plans. Every product has image, supplier, price and lead time with approve and reject buttons that record the date and comment. Show order status, delivery dates and budget spent against the agreed total.

Product lists with lead times and validity

Design fee and product costs quoted separately, each product with image, price and lead time, options at different budget levels and a validity date because supplier prices change.

Make a quote tool for an interior design studio. The design fee is separate from product costs. Each product line has an image, description, price and lead time, with good and better options per room. Quotes are valid for 30 days.

Whole projects, not just pretty shots

Before and after photos with the brief and budget range, services explained step by step from consultation to installation, how your fees work, and an enquiry form asking for rooms, timing, budget and room photos.

Make a website for my interior design studio showing projects with before and after photos, the brief and budget range, a step-by-step services page, how we charge, and an enquiry form asking rooms, timing, budget and photo uploads.

Deposits before anything is ordered

Design fees billed in stages, products invoiced at retail or trade plus fee, deposits collected before furniture orders, and trades and installation passed through.

Build invoicing for my interior design studio. Bill design fees in stages, invoice products at retail price or trade price plus a fee, require full payment before ordering made-to-order furniture, and pass through trades and installation costs.

Paid first consultations

A paid initial consultation booked online and credited against the project, site visits with travel time, virtual consultations with a video link and a short questionnaire before the visit.

Create booking for my interior design studio with a paid 90-minute home consultation, a virtual consultation with video link, travel time between site visits and a style and budget questionnaire before each visit.

Which projects actually make money

Projects in progress with budget used, fee income against product margin, hours spent per project against the fee, and enquiries converted to signed projects.

Build a dashboard for my interior design studio showing active projects with budget used, design fee income versus product margin, hours logged against fixed fees per project, and enquiry-to-project conversion.

From shared folders to one project record

Start with your next project rather than migrating old ones. Upload the concept board, add each product as you source it with its supplier link and lead time, and send the client the portal link instead of a PDF. Keep a private directory of trades and suppliers with trade terms and notes on who delivered on time.

• One record per project and room
• Products added as sourced
• Private supplier and trades list

Single-room packages and e-design

A fixed-price single-room refresh is an easier first yes than a whole home. Sell it, or an e-design package for clients outside your area, as a product with clear deliverables: mood board, floor plan, shopping list, a set number of revisions.
