Build. Design. Deliver.
Initial problem discovery?
What problem am I trying to solve?
The current traditional supply chain for raw materials and design supplies often involves time-consuming processes, such as physical store visits, order placement, and delivery wait times.
This inefficiency leads to delays in projects, reduced productivity, and increased costs for designers, artists, and craftspeople.
Findings from Secondary Research
Traditional supply chains cause slow and costly material sourcing for creatives.
Online platforms and on-demand options offer faster, cheaper alternatives.
The future involves more local, sustainable, and tech-driven supply solutions.
Whose problem are we trying to solve?
Freelance Designers and Makers
Require immediate access to specific materials for projects.
Small and Medium-sized Businesses (SMBs)
Need quick access to materials to keep their operations running smoothly.
Hobbyists and DIY Enthusiasts
Individuals engaged in crafts, arts, and home improvement projects often need immediate access to specific materials for their creative endeavors.
Construction and Renovation Professionals
Need urgent supplies for ongoing projects, making quick delivery of raw materials essential.
