Revolutionizing Custom Closet Design: a New Era in User-Friendly Tools
Tagged with: Case Studies, Software Development
We partnered with John Louis Home to create a dynamic, custom closet design tool that transforms how users plan and visualize their storage solutions. The result? An intuitive drag-and-drop interface that empowers users to design closets with custom dimensions, wall configurations, and personalized touches. The system features a comprehensive catalog of materials and finishes, ensuring that every element aligns with user preferences while offering seamless part tracking. Once the design is complete, users can preview their work and finalize their purchase via the client’s Magento eCommerce platform.
To bring this vision to life, we delivered:
- Admin Panel for seamless management of users and customers.
- Design Suite simplifies closet setup, offering flexibility in size and layout.
- Drag-and-Drop Interface allows users to effortlessly position shelving and components.
- Component Tracking with SKU assignment and wall position tracking, ensuring each element is accounted for.
- Smart Catalog Integration prevents category conflicts and ensures smooth design experiences.
- Configurable Save & Load Features so users can revisit and modify their designs.
- Real-time Price Tracking pulls data from the client’s eCommerce system, ensuring accurate budgeting.
- Design Previews allows customers to review multiple layouts and see an itemized breakdown.
- PDF Export Functionality for easy sharing and customer communication.
- Automated Notifications alert customers when their design is ready.
- eCommerce Integration to transmit SKUs and quantities to Magento for smooth order processing.
To build this closet configurator, we leveraged:
- .NET MVC
- AspNet Razor
- AspNet Identity
- EntityFramework
- HiQPdf
- Bootstrap
- JavaScript
- jQuery
- jQuery UI
Highlights and breakthroughs:
The standout achievement of this project was building an interactive drag-and-drop interface paired with detailed tracking and pricing functionality. This gave users the power to save, reload, and refine their designs while ensuring every part was accurately tracked.
Favorite moments:
- Seeing saved designs reload flawlessly, ready for continued refinement.
- Accurately matching SKUs to specific design components and tracking their placement.
- Streamlining product templates, making the codebase more manageable and adaptable.
In the end, we helped our client revolutionize the custom closet design process, making it faster, simpler, and more user-friendly. Contact our team to talk about your next project!
