Houzz Inc., a leading platform for home remodeling and design, empowering industry professionals and their clients with all-in-one project management and design software, has announced its community’s choices for Best of Houzz 2025. The annual homeowner-to-homeowner guide highlights the most outstanding professionals across the globe including top home builders, kitchen and bath remodelers, architects, interior designers, landscape pros and other residential design and remodeling professionals. This exclusive award program recognizes just 2% of the more than 3 million home building, remodeling and design professionals on the platform.
Houzz senior editor, Mitchell Parker, tells KBB, “Among this year’s winners, a kitchen with features that enhance entertaining is at the top of many wish lists. An extra-long island that has both counter seating and a stepped-down dining table with face-to-face seating is the perfect recipe, and we’re seeing both on Houzz and among winning Best of Houzz photos. Well positioned beverage refrigerators and coffee bars also let guests grab a drink without getting in the way of the cook in the main part of the kitchen. When it comes to bathrooms, we’re seeing homeowners take a bold design leap with powder rooms that pop to wow guests. It creates an intimate little moment of surprise that can be a style departure from the rest of the home. A dramatic wallpaper and vanity combination is a surefire approach in these spaces.”
“Best of Houzz award winners exemplify the highest levels of design, quality and customer satisfaction among residential construction and design professionals,” said Liza Hausman, vice president of Industry Marketing for the platform. “This year, we’re excited to introduce a new category – the Innovator Award – that celebrates pros using our award-winning software to help deliver a standout experience to their clients. We congratulate this year’s winners and look forward to seeing their continued success.”
Best of Houzz is awarded annually in four categories:
• Design: Honors professionals whose work was the most popular among the platform’s community.
• Customer Service: Honors professionals for their overall rating on the platform and positive client reviews for projects completed in 2024.
• Innovator: Honors professionals who win Best of Houzz Service, manage their projects with Houzz Pro software and are Houzz Pro Certified to provide a best-in-class client experience.
