Imagine yourself a gardener. With each new season, you find yourself heading out to shop for seeds, even though your shed is brimming with favourites – flowers, herbs, and all sorts of greenery from last year. Sounds a bit déjà vu, doesn't it?

It's a lot like the cycle many interior designers go through with every project. You're off on a hunt for product info on manufacturers’ websites, the same path you’ve been on countless times already.

Although it might feel like this routine is just part of the job, it’s unnecessarily eating into your time. It's more than the annoyance of clicking through website after website or the well-known copy-paste. It's about all the amazing time and creativity that could be put into fresh designs and innovative ideas, rather than retracing your steps through tasks you've done before.

Is it really what you should be focusing on?

This cycle of constant searching and compiling, as familiar as it might involve, comes with its fair share of headaches. Think about the sheer amount of time sunk into manually gathering product details. Each piece of information manually entered is a chance for typing mistakes to creep in, and these errors can spiral into bigger issues down the line with incorrect pricing or sizing.

Then there's the mental fatigue. Juggling multiple tabs, Google Drive folders, and documents for each project doesn't just wear you down. It scatters your focus, making it harder to channel your creativity where it truly belongs. It's this draining administrative routine that pulls you away from the heart of interior design – transforming spaces with your vision and artistry.

Goodbye old ways, wasn’t nice knowing you

Picture this: you don’t have to go through that tiresome cycle of copying and pasting product links ever again. Sounds quite nice, right? We think the same.

That’s why we have built a shared product library for thesheet – a game-changer for interior designers weary of the copy-paste game. Now you can be the gardener who discovers the treasure trove of seeds they’ve already got in their shed, ready to plant.

thesheet opens up a world where your favourite products and materials are right there at your fingertips, from the very start of every project. No more endless searching or starting from zero. Everything is centralised in the cloud.

With thesheet, it’s like having your own digital toolbox stocked with everything you need, simplifying your workflow and keeping the creative juices flowing without a hitch.

Explore and add items from the Product Library directly into your Project view with just a single click.

Once is enough for us

Just picture the ease of adding your product details into the library only that single time. That's it, no repeating steps. Every measurement, every fabric, every paint swatch, and every stylish piece of furniture you adore is immediately at your fingertips for any project, any time. With pictures. Just waiting to be dropped into your spec sheets.

When starting out you can even delegate the process of inserting all the information of your favourite brands to an assistant or an intern. Start professional from day one, so everything is already there from the get-go.

This unlocks a whole new level of freedom for you. Now, you can spend more time doing what you love most – weaving your design magic, exploring new concepts, and immersing yourself in the creative process rather than data entry.

thesheet sweeps away the mundane tasks, ensuring your go-to products are just a click away.

What is a shared product library?

Why does a shared product library matter for interior designers?

Quick Answer: In thesheet, a shared product library is a centralized cloud database where teams save furniture, finishes, and supplier details once so they are searchable and reusable across every project. It cuts repetitive copy-paste work and reduces manual data entry errors.

Everyone’s on board - shared product library

With our shared product library, each and every team member benefits, as the database constantly grows and changes. Once someone adds a new chair or a light fixture, it's instantly ready for everyone to add to their project as well.

What this really means is projects come together more cohesively, teamwork flows more freely, and your creative options explode in the best way possible. By sharing the load in sourcing products, thesheet nurtures a collective effort, enriching every project with a wider range of ideas and making the design process a whole lot smoother for everyone. It’s teamwork made simple and effective.

Everyone on the team shares the same Product Library for instant access to trusted supplier data.

Clip from any website

We’ve also thought of that one time you have to enter the information in the first place. How to make that as easy as possible? Just use our Web Clipper tool that revolutionises how you collect product information from retailers. Gone are the days of the cumbersome copy-paste dance into Excel.

This browser extension simplifies the entire process, allowing you to save product specs directly from web pages into the library with just a few clicks.

Here's how it works: the Web Clipper pops up over the webpage you're browsing, ready with fields for all the essential details – name, brand, size, colour, materials, and price. All you have to do is select the text you need on the webpage, and with a click, it's automatically saved into the Web Clipper and seamlessly deposited into your product library.

This tool doesn't just save time, it intuitively integrates with your workflow, making it easier than ever to capture the exact details of every product you love.

Clip products from any site and add them straight to projects or your product library.
