HOME DESIGN & DECOR

About Us

Home Design & Decor Magazine is a design and lifestyle magazine distributed in several cities in the United States. The total circulation exceeds 180,000 copies annually, in each market served.

Started in Charlotte North Carolina in 2000 and initially branded as Urban Home Magazine, we have expanded into several markets including Charlotte, San Antonio / Austin and Raleigh / Durham. New markets are being added throughout the United States, to expand our distribution. Local franchise opportunites are available!

Recently re-branded as Home Design & Decor, the magazine attracts national and regional design professionals, who trust the editorial integrity, laser-focused distribution and broad base of home design and decorating topics, to showcase their work.

The magazines vary from market to market to embrace individual market styles and regional design, while at the same time, sharing common editorial that speaks to national design trends.

Each regional magazine is locally owned by independant publishers who reside within the communities they represent. This operating structure ensures that long lasting relationships are being formed in the community with other business owners.

National and regional advertisers have the flexibility to leverage their brand in all markets served, or select specific regional markets.

Home Design & Decor Magazine provides superior positioning for local and national advertisers through profiles of inspiring beautiful local homes, strategic advertorials and interesting trend articles. Home Design & Decor delivers the content readers want and the targeted and guaranteed delivery advertisers must have.

For advertisers, Home Design & Decor Magazine provides multiple marketing opportunities to reach a targeted upscale audience through product placement in insightful articles, advertorials and ads through the guaranteed distribution of in-home delivery.

Distribution

We direct mail to affluent, single family homes in each market, and supplement our distribution with hundreds of home-related retail locations, luxury car dealerships, real estate relocation offices, doctor’s offices and mailings to the design trade, to ensure affluent homeowners see the magazine and your ad. Depending upon the market served, the minimum house value of our direct mail starts in the low $500’s with no upper limit. We also review income of these homes to ensure an affluent reader sees the magazine.

We analyze the wealthiest zip codes and neighborhoods to ensure the most affluent readers see your ad. Our data is verified by third party, national direct mail sources that combine publically available data such as property tax values and home resale values to develop the most accurate mail list possible. 

In fact, nearly 85% of our entire distribution is delivered directly to consumers' homes and mail boxes based on verifiable data sources. Unlike a magazune that is randomly placed around town, there’s no guess work with our distribution.

We even send out postage receipts and mailing reports of the demographics of our mailings with each magazine printing.

Please ask your local account representative for specific zip codes, household income and retail locations per market.
