Trade Program
Built for Design Professionals
The Melaaura Trade Program exists for studios that treat specification as a discipline. It is built for interior designers, architects, and procurement teams who expect rigor, clarity, and reliable execution. We curate European and Italian luxury collections with a measured eye, then support your project end-to-end with documentation, samples, and communication that earns client trust.
Pricing That Respects Expertise
Trade membership unlocks net pricing calibrated for professional use, with consideration for volume, scope, and repeat partnership. We issue clean, itemized quotations that support client approvals and present alternative configurations when value engineering is required. Resale documentation is processed promptly so purchasing remains smooth and compliant.
Specification, Without Guesswork
Great rooms are the result of precise decisions. Our team advises on proportion, ergonomics, and material performance so each piece serves its context—residential, hospitality, multifamily, or commercial. Where durability is non-negotiable, we surface contract-grade options that maintain the design language while meeting operational realities. Expect informed guidance on foam blends, abrasion ratings, finish systems, and maintenance profiles.
Samples, Finishes, and COM/COL
Material truth lives in the hand and in the light. Trade members can request swatches, finish chips, and curated sample sets that accelerate approvals. We support COM/COL on eligible upholstery with clear yardage guidance, pattern matching notes, and lead-time expectations. When custom finishes are warranted, we align on targets, document choices, and manage the process so intent survives production.
Digital Assets for Faster Approvals
Documentation should remove friction, not add it. Where available, we provide spec sheets, CAD blocks, and 3D assets to streamline coordination with consultants and contractors. Dimensional drawings and installation notes are prepared to reduce RFIs and protect timelines. The result is a clean handoff from design to site.
Logistics You Can Trust
Timelines rarely move in a straight line. We plan for that. Our trade desk sequences multi-vendor orders, monitors production, and coordinates white-glove delivery nationwide. We arrange storage and phased delivery when schedules shift, document site constraints, and communicate proactively so installs remain controlled. Punch-list support, claims assistance, and replacements are handled with urgency and discretion.
Compliance, Safety, and Performance
Procurement teams require proof, not promises. We assist with documentation on fire standards, foam specifications, and finish performance as appropriate to the brief. For outdoor environments, we advise on UV stability, corrosion resistance, and cleaning protocols. For high-traffic interiors, we balance resilience with comfort to maintain design integrity over time.
Hospitality, Multifamily, and Residential
Different programs demand different tolerances. In hospitality and multifamily, we optimize for lifecycle value: durable finishes, serviceable components, and a presentation that photographs beautifully on day one and day one thousand. In private residences, we emphasize comfort, silhouette, and tactile quality—the quiet details that make a space feel resolved. In every case, we specify with both aesthetics and operations in view.
Responsible Sourcing, Considered Craft
Sustainability is a practical standard here. We prioritize makers who demonstrate responsible material use and traceable craftsmanship. When your project requires environmental documentation, we help you assemble the evidence. Packaging, handling, and site conduct follow the same logic—careful, efficient, and respectful of the build.
Clear Process, Predictable Outcomes
From inquiry to install, the process is linear by design. Discovery defines scope and constraints. Specification aligns on product, finish, and timeline. Quotation codifies selections and terms. Production proceeds with documented checkpoints. Delivery is executed with white-glove care and confirmed against plan. You’ll know what happens next because we tell you before you ask.
Eligibility and Enrollment
Enrollment is straightforward for qualified professionals. Provide your business credentials—license or certification, resale documentation where applicable, and a short profile of your practice. Once approved, you receive access to net pricing, a dedicated point of contact, and prioritized support for quotes, samples, and scheduling.
