Company mission
To allow anyone to book video consultations with the world's top design experts.
Our take
Carefully thought-out interior design is hugely important to many homeowners, allowing them to bring unique character and aesthetics to their property. However, the interior design process is complicated and usually requires the advice of experts, yet locating such services is expensive and hard to find despite high demands.
The Expert provides an on-demand marketplace for interior design expert consultation, allowing homeowners to receive design advice from experts on a video call within their own homes. The company also provides an online showroom store for expert-chosen partnerships with furniture ranges, in addition to regular online edutainment content regarding interior design.
Whilst it is undeniable that interior design services have always been available, The Expert has recognized that this usually requires an individual to be well-connected within design circles. The company claims that through its interior design expert marketplace and store, it can democratize access to such expertise and ensure that any people who are interested in interior design can get the advice they need to improve their home.
