Housewear wants to make shopping for lighting and window fashions an exciting and immersive experience. We are seeking $50,000 to allow us to develop an all-inclusive online shopping cart and custom software application. The shopping cart will allow users all over the world to view and purchase any of Housewear's 50,000+ products. The software application allows the user to visualize the products in their home or office before placing an order.

Our innovative mobile app (iOS and Android) allows you to select items from our shopping cart and view them using the camera on the back of your device as if the item was in your own room.  No more worries about how it's going to look in your room.

So you have a big project or just prefer working on your computer.  Housewear allows you to create a project folder and upload your room images, estimates, or any other documents associated with your project.  It's your own little cloud space.  Along with the cloud space, you can view your images in the Housewear Design Center.  The design center allow you to grab items from the shopping cart and place them on the room image.  Just one more way for you to visualize the item before you make the purchase.

Housewear is a retailer for home lighting, decorative hardware, and custom window fashions. Based out of Oklahoma City, we focus on providing designer home décor at everyday prices. Our goal is to make the lighting and window treatment selection process as painless as possible. Our in-house designers work with your tastes and budget to help you achieve the interior look you've always desired. From builder-grade lighting to custom designed draperies, Housewear's ability to transform an empty house into an inviting home, is unmatched.

Housewear began as a window treatment company in Oklahoma City.  We were approached with the idea of adding lighting and hardware to our product line up.  We opened a new store on the South side of Oklahoma City (the only lighting store in South Oklahoma City).  Since then we have serviced both homeowners and builders.

We are constantly asked by our customers to be able to shop online.  So, we began researching.  Our CIO owns his own software company, so we compiled a list of "Wouldn't it be great if..." and presented it to him.  To our surprise, not only were they possible, but he took it to the next level.  We want our customers to be able to envision how the products will look in their current setting.  Our mobile and website apps will provide this functionality.  Your donations will help us bring this next generation of app to the public.  Because our CIO has his own software company, we expect to be able to create our apps for around $50,000.

The home decor industry has been behind in technology for years.  We want to help move this industry forward and offer something new to the end user.  Many people can not picture what the product will look like in their setting and we hope to help bridge that gap.  We want to offer them a digital design assistant and we need your help.  Once the app is ready for testing we will release it to all of our donors for a first look.
