The team behind HEWN has operated a successful fabrics and home furnishings showroom for over a decade in San Francisco, California.

Long before the impetus of Covid19, they envisioned a technology-enabled component to compliment their bespoke home design experience. The closing of their showroom amid Covid19 accelerated the need for such an app; the idea being to bring the showroom design experience directly to their customers. And so, a game plan was set to help bring HEWN to life.

Users can view product offerings and request samples, working alongside their designer in-app to design the space of their dreams.

Previously, the showroom was the best way to walk customers through their extensive lines of furniture offerings, design swatches and fabric materials. With a powerful mobile app to curate product offerings and help speed up the design process, everyone stands to win. Users can view and request samples to be delivered to their home directly from the app. Designers can also access a unique side of the app complete with a feed-centric UI to share work and get inspired by their co-workers. There’s also easy access to tear sheets for administrative purposes. Finally, the app acts as a built-in community for HEWN to share promotional content like instructional videos and resources with their customers and design team alike, supporting user comments and other interactive social elements.

A powerful admin was essential to manage inventory and track orders, also supporting designers and their customers.

We’ve equipped HEWN’s team with a state-of-the-art admin backend built as a website application to help manage day-to-day business. Team members are equipped with the ability to add new products and manage inventory, track data and analytics, and manage users, providing support when necessary.
