Houzz Survey Finds Personal Taste Drives Home Decor

When it comes to decor, most homes are a work in progress, with homeowners reporting that they are slightly more than halfway to achieving their vision for their home on average, according to the Houzz Decorating Trends Survey of more than 1,700 Houzz users in the U.S. and Canada who are in the midst of, or are planning, a decorating project.

“For most, decorating a home is an ongoing effort. People like to invest in things that last, but continue to update their decor as they discover new items they love, and that add to the comfort and enjoyment of the home by their family,” said Liza Hausman, vice president of community for Houzz. “Working with an interior designer or other professional can help people enjoy their homes more, creating spaces that are not only beautiful, but also specifically suited to their lifestyle.”
