Why support the eco system?
The LOUD eco system was established to manage sample libraries and give young designers the support in their early education in materials management.
Our role as librarians is to help service existing architectural and design libraries, ensuring deleted lines are removed and the library resources are set up with relevance to the practice, and ensuring their libraries are up to date.
At LOUD we can assist with digtial records.

Are you ready to reduce rubbish in the specification process?
Let’s reflect on your time as a junior designer. You likely understood the importance of managing an accurate database of samples. Having access to a master library could have simplified managing your personal collection at that time. Now the new generation uses digital records and insists on product accuracy. LOUD has partnered with Global Businesses to help create a process for this resource mangement and assist with this timewasting process all design practices use.
Join our LOUD community and support the development of our next generation of material specialists in library management and start sharing product knowledge and expertise.
