Founded in 1994 as a private bulletin board service, designonlineinc.com was developed to be a library of manufacturer catalogs and clearing house of information for the design and architectural professions. The initial concept was to provide a large library which could be easily updated and searched. In 1996 the program was moved to the Internet. designonlineinc.com currently holds the leading position in providing an Internet library of information to the design and retail organizations who sell or specify furnishings.

Because we are in the unique position of having already captured a very large body of information and won credibility within a very tight knit industry, we are entering business to business e-commerce which is a natural extension of our current service. Our potential market is already in place and is educated in the order process for sophisticated sales transactions.
