Show HN: Dabble - Online furniture shopping that doesn't suck

Here's the background:

Shopping for furniture online is like stepping into the black hole of the internet. I recently moved into a new place (during the lockdown). I spent weeks browsing tons of online stores trying to find things that would match and look good in my room, only to buy nothing. On top of all that, I found the same products being sold by multiple vendors at hugely varying prices.

So we decided to try and fix this by looking at how people shop for furniture in-person. When you're in a store like IKEA, it's easy to visualize how things might look together, but it's hard to explore a lot of options. On the flip side, shopping online seems like it should be easy, but feels like stepping into a warehouse full of furniture as far as the eye can see.

We're trying to pull the best parts of a showroom experience into an online tool.

One aspect is being able to see how multiple items look in a room together. We built a furniture collection generator that shows you multiple items together in a living room setting. One tap of the space bar presents a new living room collection instantly.

Another aspect is customizability. Dabble allows you to swap out furniture in any of the collections to create and save your own combinations. Don't like the lamp we show you? No problem, swap it with one of the hundreds we have.

Our thesis is that if we can solve these problems, we can build a much better furniture shopping experience than anything out there today.
