Designround

Designround is a design discovery platform with a standout feature called Circle — an AI-powered visual search tool for interior design. Upload a photo of a room or a product and Circle finds visually similar items across a curated catalogue, using multimodal embeddings from Voyage AI stored in pgvector.

The same embedding technique I use across Wove, Blomma, and Massive. An image and a text description of that image end up near each other in vector space, which means you can search by either — upload a photo of a mid-century credenza or type "walnut sideboard with tapered legs" and get the same results. The search is by meaning, not keywords.

The broader platform is a curation tool for design professionals — collecting, organising, and sharing design references. Circle is the part I'm most focused on shipping first because it demonstrates the full stack of what I know about multimodal search and product engineering.
