“Our mission is to simplify the design process through integration and technology. That means we have built and are always improving upon a web platform for interior designers where they can place one order for all manufacturers. Right now the industry standard is such that when finishing a design project designers sometimes have to place upwards of twenty different orders when they use several different manufacturers. The time and money involved can create big headaches and is not cost effective.” But Doodle Home, beyond their mission of consolidation, has so much more up their sleeve. The Doodle Home site is equipped with some of the coolest design tools discoverable. Their HomeStyler created by Autodesk is a virtual layout and 3D design tool that allows you to do everything from create the floor plan of your design, to adding furniture and viewing it in a 3D model. You can select furniture from their array of available brands and see the whole thing come to life, even if your designer isn’t present. It’s one of the many ways that DH is working to make the relationship between designer and client easier and more efficient. Don’t have a designer yet? Let Doodle help you find one. Is the designer you love too far away? Let Doodle help you share virtual designs. Manufacturer you need not on Doodle Home yet? Just let them know and they’ll work to get you what you need.
