Stop managing million-dirham projects through WhatsApp.
Tangent brings clients, consultants, contractors, and suppliers into one structured workflow built for interior design studios in the GCC.
Centralize client approvals, FF&E schedules, consultant coordination, site updates, and procurement tracking in one place. Reduce WhatsApp chaos, control revisions, and keep every stakeholder aligned throughout the project lifecycle.

It’s Monday morning.
Client approvals are buried in WhatsApp. Consultants are working from different files. Someone is asking for the “latest” drawing set. You know the project is moving — but you’re not sure where everything stands.
The same Monday. Complete clarity.
Every project, stage, approval, and deadline in one place. Clients, consultants, contractors, and your team stay aligned. Approvals are tracked, decisions are documented, and everyone works from the latest information. You see everything. Nothing gets missed.
The six stages your practice already runs on.
Not "Concept → Procurement → Install". The real framework — the one you list on your fee proposal. Each stage has its own deliverables, its own sign-off, its own fee tranche.
Pre-Design & Brief
Concept Design
Schematic Design
Design Development
Tender & Procurement
Construction & Handover
Built around the moments your fee actually depends on.
Client sign-off that's actually defensible
Request approval on a specific deliverable from a specific client. They tap approve. You bill the stage. No more chasing a screenshot of a thumbs-up on WhatsApp.
Clients only ever see what's ready for them
Your client opens Tangent and sees the pack you sent — not your half-finished DD drawings, not the contractor's quotes, not your internal notes.
Your projects stay yours
Every studio is fully isolated. No shared workspaces, no crossed wires, no chance of your villa client seeing the hospitality pitch next door.
Stage gating that protects your timeline
Tender stays locked until DD is approved. Construction stays locked until tender closes. The workflow enforces what your fee proposal already promised.
Every decision lives next to the work
Comments thread inside the task. Approvals attach to the deliverable. When the contractor asks why finish 04B changed, you have the trail.
Renders, schedules, and links in one place
Drag in moodboards, FF&E schedules, consultant drawings, or Pinterest links. The single source of truth your shared Drive was supposed to be.
Made for how projects actually run in the GCC.
Phased villa fit-outs. Consultant coordination across MEP, structural, and landscape. Developer–client dynamics where the person who briefs you isn't the person who signs off. DM submissions, contractor handovers, and snagging rounds that stretch across months. Tangent was shaped by a studio working through exactly this, not adapted from a US-coast SaaS template.
Built by designers. Designed for project delivery.
- Launch in minutes
- No implementation required
- No migration project
- No long-term commitment
Projects today involve clients, operators, consultants, contractors, suppliers, and approval authorities — yet most communication still lives across WhatsApp, email, and spreadsheets. Tangent brings every project decision, approval, document, and stakeholder into one structured workflow. Whether you’re designing a luxury villa, hotel, restaurant, workplace, retail destination, or large-scale development, Tangent helps your team stay aligned from concept design to final handover.
