Less Unbillable Work
No more chasing ETAs, managing vendors, updating budgets, and renaming products.
House of Europa handles all the operational work.
The Problem with Traditional Billing
For many designers, furniture sourcing comes with disproportionate effort and risk:
- Hours spent white-labeling invoices, renaming products, and hiding manufacturer details
- Clients price-checking items across vendors and questioning markups
- Justifying margins instead of focusing on design and project execution
- Managing endless emails, screenshots, revisions, and ETA requests
- Absorbing unbillable time that erodes the true value of procurement
As a result, many designers underprice furniture, avoid it altogether, or treat it as a necessary inconvenience rather than a profitable service line.
How House of Europa Changes the Model
House of Europa acts as your procurement partner, not just a supplier.
- All invoicing and client billing handled end-to-end
- Vendor communication and ordering fully managed
- Designer margins protected through a commission-based structure
- Client invoicing routed through us instead of designer markups
- Administrative friction removed for a cleaner, more professional process
Designers earn from furniture without managing the complexity.
Flexible Billing, Your Way
Every studio works differently. That’s why House of Europa offers flexible billing options that adapt to your workflow.
- Designer-Billed: We invoice your studio at trade pricing. You invoice your client as usual, set your margin, and maintain full control while we handle procurement and execution behind the scenes.
- House of Europa-Billed: We invoice the end client directly and issue a commission payment for your agreed margin, removing invoice editing, white-labeling, and pricing disputes.
Billing structure is selected on a project-by-project basis, allowing you to choose what works best for your practice and level of involvement.
