Project: Homely

Homely is an online platform for interior design and visualisation, created to make professional home planning more accessible, convenient, and easy to understand for end users.

Through the platform, clients can request a design project for one or more rooms, upload real sketches, drawings, and measurements, select a preferred interior style, and add reference images featuring colours, furniture, design elements, or interior concepts they like.

The project required the development of custom software that could transform the complex process of requesting an interior design project into a structured and intuitive online service.

A key challenge for this type of business is creating a complete process that gathers the right information from the client, guides them through each stage, and enables the team to manage every request efficiently.

What Did We Develop?

We developed a custom platform tailored to Homely’s actual workflow.

It combines a customer-facing area for creating new projects, online payment integration, and an administrative environment where the team can monitor, process, and complete each request.

Key Features

The system was designed as a clear step-by-step process that guides users from selecting a room to submitting their request and completing the payment.

It includes:

• a custom responsive platform for creating new interior design projects;
• the option to select one room or multiple rooms;
• the ability to upload real sketches, drawings, and measurements;
• a choice of interior styles from predefined options within the system;
• the option to upload reference images featuring preferred elements, colours, furniture, or stylistic directions;
• online card payment integration;
• a responsive administration panel for managing requests;
• functionality allowing the Homely team to process projects and deliver the completed visualisations.

A Platform Built Around Homely’s Actual Workflow

A central part of the project was the development of a clear process that guides clients through each step and brings all required information together in one place.

The platform collects details about the room, measurements, preferred style, and visual references within a single structured request. This makes the process easier for both the client and the Homely team.

Accurate measurements, sketches, preferences, and visual references allow the final project to be more precise and useful. The system was therefore designed to support the process from the very first step.

How Did We Support the Business?

The development of the platform provided Homely with a digital system that made online interior design clearer, easier to manage, and more scalable.

The project helped the client to:

• present the service in a more professional and accessible way;
• structure the process of requesting an interior design project;
• collect accurate and organised information from users;
• simplify the selection of rooms, styles, and visual preferences;
• receive files, sketches, drawings, and images directly through the platform;
• integrate online card payments;
• manage requests through an administration panel;
• deliver completed visualisations in a more organised way.

Technologies Used

The project was developed using:

• PHP;
• HTML5;
• CSS3;
• SASS;
• JavaScript;
• jQuery;
• responsive UI;
• card payment integration;
• a project and visualisation management system.

The technical architecture was designed with a focus on stability, efficient content management, convenient processing of customer requests, and future platform development.

The Result

Through this development by the WEBiDEI team, Homely received a complete digital environment that makes the service clearer for clients and easier for the team to manage.

The platform brings together project creation, information submission, file uploads, online payments, and subsequent processing within one structured system.

The solution helped Homely transform a complex interior planning service into a more accessible, organised, and convenient online process, supported by improved internal coordination and a stable foundation for future growth.
