Houzz launches site tailored to U.K. users

Palo Alto-based home renovation platform Houzz has crossed the pond, launching a site focused on users in the United Kingdom.



Houzz allows homeowners to connect with design and architecture professionals and each other for their renovation projects. Now the company’s million U.K. users will be able to find professionals and source nearby materials for their renovation projects

“U.K. users have been an important and growing part of the Houzz community and we’re thrilled to deliver a dedicated U.K. site and team to better serve their needs,” co-founder and CEO Adi Tatarko said. “Now U.K. homeowners can access relevant content and a growing network of professionals, in addition to the global resources Houzz provides.”

Houzz’s team in London will be led by Vivienne Sung, who has been the company’s U.K. managing director since January, and who is an advisor at mobile dating app Dattch and London-based dog boarding site myDogBuddy.
