Overview

RenoWorks Software created The Design Centre exclusively for Home Hardware as an integral part of their website strategy. It consists of four components: HomeWorks Visualizer, Beauti-Tone Home Designer, Your Scrapbook, and Colour Finder.

Working closely with over 40 different building product and home décor suppliers, RenoWorks created an online visualizer that’s the first of its kind bringing together all-in-one-place a comprehensive collection of over 20,000 name-brand products crossing multiple product categories.

HomeWorks Visualizer dramatically improves upon basic online product search functionality and helps homeowners answer the ultimate question: "I wonder what it will look like?"

To help collect inspiring ideas all in one place, Your Scrapbook allows homeowners to upload their favourite photos to an online version of the traditional scrapbook and write in their comments. Your Scrapbook intelligently connects back to Home Hardware’s website when homeowners enter in keywords in the comments sections, such as paint, flooring, siding, windows. An image grabber tool is also available allowing homeowners to capture and save inspiring images found on other websites.

The Colour Finder utility allows homeowners to quickly and easily match colours found in their favourite photos to a comprehensive collection of Beauti-Tone colours, the exclusive paint-brand for Home Hardware. RenoWorks’ approach to online visualization comes from our extensive experience in the remodeling industry and innovation in technology.

Web analytics and data are reported and given to each building product and home décor supplier to show website traffic numbers and what product lines are popular.

With a majority of homeowners spending their time browsing the Internet, The Design Centre provides Home Hardware with a unique way of marketing their products and services while distinguishing themselves from their competitors.
