Houzz.com is a new website quickly gaining popularity. Like Pinterest, it is aimed at users who want to collect visual ideas – in this case, for home décor. The site offers a collection of more than 2 million photos of everything from fireplaces to breakfast nooks to living rooms and home offices.

.

Users can store their favorite photos in online “ideabooks,” as well as email them to others. This can ease the process when working with designers, as users can email their designers photos of décor styles they are drawn to, in order to help convey their taste preferences.

 .

Once users have chosen design styles, the site helps them put those ideas in action, offering a host of home products for sale, including light fixtures, shower curtains, bed frames and much more. And finally, it also offers a way to find local service providers, such as kitchen remodelers and landscapers.

 .

In short, if you’re planning a home project, large or small, Houzz is a great place to start gathering ideas. Explore the site at www.houzz.com.
