YOUR WORK IS BUILT ON DETAILS. YOUR BOOKS SHOULD BE, TOO.
Bookkeeping for Interior Design & Architecture Firms
You already keep track of enough details. LedgeGo keeps the financial side accurate and up to date so you can stay focused on clients and projects — with a clear view of the business behind the work.
BOOKKEEPING DESIGNED AROUND YOUR PROCESS
From First Sketch To Final Walkthrough, We Get It.
Design firms don’t all earn money the same way. One project may be hourly, another fixed-fee or billed in phases. Interior designers may purchase furnishings for clients, while architecture firms may bring outside consultants into the work.
However your projects are structured, LedgeGo organizes the books around the way the work actually runs so you can see the financial side clearly from kickoff to closeout.

Why Bookkeeping Matters for Interior Designers & Architects
A $100,000 project can look impressive until you separate what went to furnishings, consultants, contractors, reimbursable costs, and the time your team spent delivering the work. The number on the client invoice isn’t always the number the firm actually gets to keep.
Clean bookkeeping connects income and costs to the work they belong to, so you can see which projects are paying off, which ones went sideways, and whether your pricing reflects the work you’re actually putting in. That gives you better information before you quote the next project, add staff, or commit to a large purchase.
Find The Right Bookkeeping Support
For Your Firm
Each month, we keep client payments, vendor and consultant bills, and everyday business expenses organized and up to date, then send clear reports so you can see what the firm earned, what it spent, and make decisions with confidence.
Whether you bill by project, phase, or hour, we’ll organize QuickBooks so your income and costs are easy to follow from one project to the next — then show you how to use it confidently.
If the books are behind or old project activity has gotten mixed together, we’ll sort through the history, fix what needs fixing, and bring everything current so you can trust the numbers again.
How LedgeGo Supports Interior Design & Architecture Businesses
Your reports should tell you more than how much you billed. We keep the books accurate and current so you can see what the firm is actually earning and whether everyday costs are creeping up. You’ll also know how much cash is available for payroll, taxes, hiring, and upcoming work. No judging the health of the business by a full project calendar alone.
And you’re not sending your books off somewhere and hoping for the best. If something looks off, we flag it. If you have a question, you get an answer. If a report doesn’t make sense, we’ll explain it without the accounting jargon. You have someone paying attention, staying on top of the details, and genuinely in your corner while you focus on your clients and creative work.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does LedgeGo keep project costs from getting mixed up with the firm’s everyday expenses?
Design and architecture firms often spend money on behalf of a specific project — furniture and materials, consultants, vendors, permits, or other client-related costs — while also paying the normal expenses of running the firm. LedgeGo keeps those two worlds separate and ties project costs to the work they belong to, so you can see what the firm spent on a project, what has been billed back to the client, and what the firm itself actually earned from the work.
Can QuickBooks show us whether an individual project is actually profitable?
Yes. If your QuickBooks Online plan includes Projects, LedgeGo can organize the income and costs connected to each job in one place. That means you can see how much revenue a project has generated, what it has cost the firm so far, and how profitable the work actually is — even while the project is still underway. Intuit currently includes Projects in QuickBooks Online Plus and Advanced.
Why can the firm be busy and profitable on paper but still feel short on cash?
Because the timing of the money matters. Your firm may pay consultants, vendors, staff, and other project costs weeks before the next client invoice is paid. LedgeGo keeps client balances, upcoming bills, project spending, and cash activity current so you can see where the money is tied up and what’s actually available — instead of wondering why a packed project schedule isn’t showing up in the bank yet.
Can LedgeGo work with the project-management or design software our firm already uses?
Yes. Your project software can keep handling the work it was built for — proposals, project schedules, purchasing, client billing, or project details — while LedgeGo makes sure the financial activity from that work is reflected correctly in your books. We use the relevant invoices, payments, vendor costs, and other financial information to show what the firm earned, what each project cost, what clients still owe, and where the business stands overall — without making you recreate everything in two places.
