Portaire

Portaire is a UK-based B2B SaaS platform for interior designers, offering a curated directory of over 40,000 architectural and interior design products from luxury brands across the UK and Europe. The platform streamlines the entire design workflow—from product discovery and sourcing to client presentations, collaboration, and procurement—replacing fragmented tools and manual processes.
Founded in 2020 by Lori Bolon and Matteo Grand, two Sydney-born friends now based in London, Portaire addresses pain points Bolon experienced during 15 years as an interior architect. The platform features advanced filtering (by category, colour, style, dimensions, sustainability, price), direct supplier communication, and visual project management tools designed specifically for designers' needs. All listed brands are personally vetted by the Portaire team.
