Client Portal for Architecture & Interior Design Firms

Share plans, collect approvals, and manage projects in one place

Architecture and interior design projects span months with dozens of deliverables. Give clients a dedicated portal to review drawings, approve selections, and track project milestones.

Sound familiar?

The problems you’re dealing with

If any of these hit close to home, you’re not alone.

Plans and drawings shared by email

Floor plans, elevations, and 3D renders get sent as oversized email attachments. Clients lose track of which version is current.

Material selections lack organization

Fabric swatches, paint colors, and fixture options discussed over text and email. Decisions aren't documented in one place.

Long feedback cycles

You send plans for review and wait days. Clients aren't sure what they're looking at or how to provide structured feedback.

Phase billing with no project context

Schematic design, design development, construction docs — invoices reference phases but clients don't see the work behind them.

The solution

How DS Client Portal helps

A dedicated portal that fits the way you already work.

1

Drawing and plan delivery

Upload floor plans, 3D renders, and construction documents to the portal. Clients download the latest versions instantly.

2

Structured approval workflow

Create tasks for each approval milestone — schematic sign-off, material selections, final review. Clients approve with documented comments.

3

Project phase tracking

Clients see exactly where their project stands — concept, design development, documentation, construction administration.

4

Phase-based invoicing

Invoice per project phase with line items tied to deliverables. Clients understand what each payment covers.

In practice

A real-world workflow

1

You upload design deliverables

Share schematic drawings, 3D renders, or material mood boards through the portal. The client gets a notification to review.

2

Client reviews and approves

The client examines drawings in the portal, leaves feedback on specific elements, and confirms approval with a comment.

3

Phase milestone invoiced

With schematic design approved, you invoice for that phase and move the project to design development.
