Houzz Russia Celebrates One Year Anniversary


Houzz Inc., the world’s leading platform for home renovation and design, today announced that it has grown its community in one year to more than 900,000 monthly unique users and over 20,000 active home professionals to its dedicated mobile and online platform, Houzz.ru. This represents tremendous growth from the launch in March 2015 with 100,000 monthly unique users and nearly 2,000 active home renovation and design professionals.

Houzz is the largest platform for home renovation and design globally with more than 40 million monthly unique users, 90 percent of whom are homeowners, and over one million active home professionals. Russia was the fifth country to launch as part of the company’s international expansion, which has since continued across Europe and into Asia. Over 45 percent of new Houzz users now come from outside the U.S., compared to less than 30 percent in 2013 prior to the company’s expansion efforts.

Since launch, Houzz has been focused on building its local content and community. Given the substantial growth and engagement from the Russian community, Houzz will now begin introducing its commerce and advertising layers to Russian brands, manufacturers, vendors and professionals in the coming year.

Adi Tatarko, Houzz cofounder and CEO said, “Our mission from day one has been to deliver the best technology and experience for home renovation and design by addressing every aspect of the process, and this has been our mission in Russia, too. We’re excited to see the exceptional organic growth of our local community, and to connect Russian homeowners and home professionals with our community around the world. As Houzz expands internationally, the unique design aesthetic and talent of Russia have a major role in the global design language that Houzz is facilitating.”

Houzz provides homeowners and professionals access to over 9.5 million retina-quality professional photos, 125,000 of which come from Russia, showcasing the best of local home interiors and exteriors. Russia also contributes to thousands of guides and articles from home renovation and design professionals, as well as over 2,000 home-related discussions, to the global platform.
