We are incredibly excited to bring Mydoma into the Studio Designer family,” Keith Granet, Founder and CEO of Studio Designer.

The two companies will form one of the largest product, technology and service team dedicated exclusively to creating business management software solutions for interior designers.

Over the last ten years, we are proud to have built an industry-leading product used by thousands of designers across the US and Canada. We are thrilled to join Studio Designer, who shares our values and mission to enable designers to spend less time managing, more time designing.
