Interior design studio software: from first enquiry to final handover in one workspace

Interior projects juggle client approvals, BOQs, vendors, production and site work. Here is how studios can run the whole journey in one place and protect their margins.

Interior design is a business of a thousand small decisions. Every room has its own scope, every client has revisions, and every vendor has a delivery date that affects the next trade on site. When those decisions live in chats, spreadsheets and the designer's memory, scope creeps and margins shrink.

Where studios lose time and money

  • Scope creep. Changes agreed on a site visit never reach the estimate.
  • Client revisions. Approvals are scattered across WhatsApp threads and email.
  • Vendor delays. Purchase orders and production status are tracked by phone.
  • Slow close-out. Punch items and final invoices drag on after the project is "done".

Picture a project that runs on one record

A homeowner enquires about a three-bedroom apartment. The lead enters the studio's interior pipeline with its source and activity log. Once the client signs, the project is set up room by room, each with tasks and schedules. The designer builds the bill of quantities in the BOQ estimator and explores colour schemes for each room in the AI Colour Studio.

Purchase requests become purchase orders to vendors, who update their orders through a vendor portal. Custom furniture goes out as production orders. The client follows progress through a secure client portal instead of calling the designer. At the end, site workers clear the punch list and the client invoice is raised from the same project.

What a studio needs

  1. A sales pipeline for interior leads and campaigns.
  2. Projects organised by room, with tasks, schedules and follow-ups.
  3. BOQ estimation tied to the project, so changes show up in the numbers.
  4. Purchasing and production orders with vendor visibility.
  5. Client and vendor portals to cut status calls.
  6. Punch lists and invoicing to close projects cleanly.

How Woxox fits

Interior Design OS covers the full journey: sales pipeline, projects and rooms, BOQ estimator, AI Colour Studio, purchasing, production orders, site workers and punch lists, invoices, and client and vendor portals. It connects with Finance for books and GST invoicing and with WOXOX Connect for client video meetings.

For larger fit-out and civil work, Construction OS adds WBS, BOQ, work packages, measurements, procurement, site records, quality and cost control.

Start small

Pick your next new project and run it end to end in one workspace: pipeline, rooms, BOQ, purchasing and portal. Compare the number of client status calls with your last project.
