About PlanObuild.com

PlanObuild was formed with the need to disrupt the Architecture, Interior design and building material space because of the need to organize the highly unorganized and unstructured industry and bringing about efficiency and greater productivity with technological advancement.

We believe the Indian consumer was not getting enough content on the Interior design community and could transact commerce easily through the power of the mobile technology. We believe we could make a difference by creating a platform where the home owner in need of constructing their homes or renovating theirs could discuss and share ideas, knowledge and gather information through the power of the reach of PlanObuild.
