Smart Source has developed an image bank for Kosta Boda to deliver product images to the press and stores. With the help of Smart Source's image bank, Kosta Boda can manage its product images in a structured way with functions to categorize and tag images.
C# ASP.NET, Kosta Boda
Smart Source has developed a robust image bank for Kosta Boda. The system is designed to store, organize and distribute product images to the press and stores. By using the image bank, Kosta Boda can easily manage its large image library and ensure that images are available to relevant stakeholders.
An important function of the system is the ability to categorize and tag the images. By assigning relevant categories and tags to each image, it becomes easy to search for specific products or image types. This saves time and makes it easier for users to find exactly the images they need. In addition, the system enables image sharing, which means users can easily share product images with other stakeholders, such as marketing departments, printers or retailers.
This image bank that Smart Source has built for Kosta Boda appears to be a powerful solution for managing and distributing product images to the press and stores. By offering categorization, tagging and sharing functions, the system facilitates the work with image management and ensures that the right images reach the right people at the right time.
Is a programming language and framework that allows developers to build dynamic and interactive web applications. It is widely used for developing web-based solutions and is especially popular for creating enterprise-level applications. C# ASP provides a robust and scalable environment for building web applications with its extensive library of pre-built components and tools. It offers features like code-behind, server-side scripting, and seamless integration with databases, making it a versatile choice for developing complex and data-driven websites. With its strong support for object-oriented programming and a wide community of developers, C# ASP is a reliable option for creating powerful web applications.
With a focus on modern lifestyle products and inspiring art, Kosta Boda creates glass that makes a difference. Absolutely, it's just glass, but at the same time it's so much more.
At Kosta Boda, we have worked with glass for almost 300 years, developing a deep understanding and love for the material. We work with design, interior design, lifestyle and art, striving to create products and objects that are bold and forward-thinking, yet accessible.
Kosta Boda, a Swedish luxury glass manufacturer, needed a secure, scalable platform to manage and distribute high-quality product images to authorized retailers, press contacts, and sales teams worldwide. Their previous solution — file-sharing via email and manual folder structures — was cumbersome, error-prone, and difficult to audit.
We built a web-based product image bank (Digital Asset Management) system in C# ASP.NET, deployed on Azure. Features include:
Kosta Boda reduced image distribution time from days to minutes, improved brand consistency by restricting outdated images, and gained full visibility into asset usage across all channels. The system now serves retailers, press, and internal teams across multiple countries with zero manual handoff.
The project was delivered in several phases. The core platform — including role-based access control, full-text search, and categorization — was completed in the first months, followed by additional features such as watermarking and audit logging. Contact us for a more detailed project timeline.
The image bank is built in C# ASP.NET and deployed on Microsoft Azure. The solution includes role-based access control (RBAC), full-text search, metadata management, and a complete audit trail for all downloads.
Yes, the system is designed to manage thousands of high-resolution product images across all of Kosta Boda's product lines. The Azure infrastructure ensures scalability and reliable performance even with large image volumes and simultaneous users across multiple countries.
The system uses role-based access control (RBAC), allowing specific permissions to be assigned to each user group — press contacts, retailers, and internal sales teams each see only the images and collections relevant to them. Every access and download is logged for full traceability and brand protection.
Yes, the system can be integrated with existing business systems via API. Smart Source has extensive experience in system integrations and can adapt the solution to work seamlessly with your PIM, ERP, or e-commerce platforms. Contact us to discuss your specific integration requirements.
