Blackstone Group Inc. is buying Interior Logic Group Inc. for about $1.6 billion including debt, preempting the company’s initial public offering and bolstering a bet on single-family housing.

Private equity funds managed by Blackstone are acquiring the interior-design technology provider from a group including Littlejohn & Co. and Platinum Equity, according to an emailed statement Monday. Last month, Interior Logic applied to list on the Nasdaq under the ticker “ILG.”
