Homedit.com was founded in Bucharest, Romania, in 2008 by Stefan Gheorghe, an entrepreneur and early pioneer in online home and lifestyle publishing. What began as a local passion project quickly grew into a global design platform, serving hundreds of millions of visitors worldwide over the years.
From the very beginning, Stefan’s vision was clear: make great design accessible to everyone. He believed that every home—no matter the budget—could be a reflection of individuality, creativity, and comfort. That belief still guides Homedit.com today.
Over the past 17 years, Homedit.com has published more than 5,000 carefully curated articles, covering interior design, DIY projects, architecture, home technology, and renovation ideas. With millions of shares across Pinterest, YouTube, and social media, Homedit.com has become a worldwide design community where inspiration meets practical advice.
A Recognized Voice in Design Media
Under Stefan’s leadership, Homedit.com has been featured in leading international outlets, including Architectural Digest, Bloomberg, Martha Stewart, House Beautiful, Livingetc, Country Living, and The Spruce. These recognitions highlight the site’s role as a trusted authority for design enthusiasts, homeowners, and professionals alike.

Editorial Guidelines and Principles
Integrity has been a key ingredient of our success, and it’s something we’ll always uphold. By providing readers with original content, accuracy isn’t merely a notion, but rather the underlying theme for everything we publish.
Before each article is made available to the public, it must be approved by our editorial board through their specially designed system of fact-checking protocol and content review process.
We follow the same publishing guidelines and practices utilized by news and media agencies worldwide.
Sourcing
Homedit enforces and adheres to the highest standards available with regard to content delivery and publishing. Our team of writers generate stories from boots-on-the-ground interaction to careful field research and analysis. The underlying point here is that we don’t make it up as we go along.
Before we engage with a potential source, they must clear a multi-step verification check. By implementing in-house protocol authentication measures help us determine reliability and authenticity. We do this not only as a courtesy for our readers, but as a civic obligation to uphold accuracy in reporting.
Ethics
As our readers will tell you, accountability is a built-in priority at Homedit. It goes without saying that our team of writers, researchers, and editors understand the responsibilities that come with their jobs.
When you provide the public with information, it needs to be 100 percent, and anything less would be disingenuous. It is out of great civic responsibility that we give our readers the best and most information available today. If we didn’t operate by that standard, we wouldn’t be here today. Now more than ever, the last thing the internet needs is another fraudulent platform.
(because who doesn’t like a little attention every now and then?)
Adding to our success, we’ve received accolades and industry acknowledgment from some of the most prominent luminaries in the design field. Without this, a giant void would exist in place of our credibility.
Our Commitment to Human Written Content
All content on Homedit is written by humans. We withhold high editorial standards and perform rigorous fact-checking – a job best suited for people. Information written by ChatGPT and similar AI chatbots often contains misleading or incorrect information. Our mission is to deliver honest and accurate tips, tutorials, and home advice. We have a team of expert writers, each bringing knowledge, personal experience, and the ability to express ideas in their own words.
Media Highlights
Throughout our journey within the world of home design and DIY solutions, we’ve received our fair share of international media attention.
It’s always nice to stand under the spotlight for a moment or two and receive recognition for our efforts and dedication. What a fun ride it has been, and honestly, there are moments when it seems a bit unbelievable.
But more than anything, we hope you’ll stick around as we continue to expand our presence on the global stage.
Without the help of a few key international media platforms, we wouldn’t be where we are today. We thought we’d say thanks to them and share a few highlights that have helped make Homedit a respected authority in the home design industry.
Do you enjoy writing about home design trends and DIY solutions as much as we do? If you think you know how to write and enjoy helping others improve their living spaces, send us your best work, and we’ll take a look at it.
We’re always open to fresh voices who would be a good fit for our team of creative experts. Over the years, we’ve been fortunate enough to feature some of the best home and lifestyle writers working in the industry today.
