The interior design and construction industry involves various stakeholders who must collaborate and coordinate effectively to ensure the successful realization of projects. However, the existing workflow often suffers from fragmentation and inefficiency, leading to delays, errors, and increased costs. To address these challenges, this paper introduces the Arch Cloud Chain Dapp project, a decentralized software application that leverages blockchain technology and Building Information Modeling (BIM) to establish a transparent, secure, and efficient platform for stakeholder collaboration in interior design projects. The primary objective of this project is to reduce interior design costs while upholding high standards of quality and transparency. By integrating BIM and blockchain technology, the Arch Cloud Chain Dapp enables stakeholders to collaborate in real-time, significantly mitigating the risk of errors and miscommunication. Smart contracts play a crucial role in ensuring the enforceability and transparency of agreements, while the blockchain serves as an immutable ledger, providing an auditable record of all project transactions. These innovative features present a novel solution to the challenges faced by the interior design and construction industry. The Arch Cloud Chain Dapp project holds significant potential to revolutionize the industry by streamlining processes, enhancing collaboration, and reducing costs. Through its adoption, stakeholders can benefit from improved project outcomes, streamlined communication, and enhanced efficiency, ultimately leading to a more sustainable and prosperous interior design and construction sector.
