The Metropolitan Ballroom hosted the October NKBA “Houzz” event, which joined the BATC and NKBA for one great afternoon. Houzz is the largest online interior and exterior library of photos uploaded by industry professionals. Katherine Nannizzi, a director at Houzz.com, spoke about Houzz’s 2nd annual Houzz and Home Study. Houzz.com is a great tool for people looking to find legitimate professionals in the home design and construction industry.
