🔗 Before You Start
Check out the companion article: Corporate vs Private Roles
The Private Client role on Flameplace is designed for individuals furnishing, renovating, or planning their homes. It offers access to a professional-grade ecosystem without the need to represent a company - giving private users inspiration, collaboration, and tools to bring their ideas to life.
Who Is This Role For?
The Private Client role is assigned automatically upon registration and is perfect for:
Homeowners or individuals planning interior projects
People looking to explore products, brands, and ideas
Users who don't manage a company but want to work with professionals
You can remain a Private Client indefinitely or later create/join a company to use Flameplace professionally.
What Can a Private Client Do?
Private Clients can:
Explore product library, brands, projects, and community posts
Save favorites and organize ideas
Create private projects in Project Studio
Invite Designers to collaborate
Request pricing via Suppliers (not directly from Manufacturers)
Chat via Messenger with approved partners
Follow companies and designers for updates
🔒 Direct pricing from manufacturers is not available. Just like in the real market, all commercial interactions happen through trusted partners.
Switching Between Roles
If you later create or join a company as a professional (e.g. Designer, Supplier), your Private Client profile remains active. You can switch between personal and business modes anytime — and return to personal use if you leave those companies.
🤝 Collaborating in Real Projects
Private Clients can:
Invite designers to co-create projects
Let the system suggest verified suppliers based on project content
Coordinate from idea to delivery within a single platform
Even without a company, you can work like a pro.
Smart Matching
When you add a product from a specific brand, Flameplace will suggest local Official Suppliers or Certified Designers linked to that brand. The more overlaps a professional has with your project, the higher they appear in recommendations.
Digitizing the Real Market
Flameplace doesn’t change how the market works — it digitizes and simplifies it. Just like offline, factories don’t work directly with clients — suppliers and designers do.
Now, it all happens in one connected space. Simple. Familiar. Professional.
