In January 2003, Design Basics Inc.,
recognized a need to publish a magazine for women in the dreaming
or planning stage of building a new home or remodeling their present
home.
Because research shows 80% of homebuilding and remodeling decisions are made by women, she was amazed there wasn't a single women's magazine
on the newsstand at the time with this focus.
It didn't take long for Linda's vision to become concrete. The first issue of Her Home magazine was launched in September of 2003. From the
start, Linda's goal was to provide practical information and a wealth of ideas to help women make these major decisions.
Unlike home decoration magazines, Her Home magazine focuses on women's perspectives on design, construction and products for the home, and
includes input from leading women homebuilders and industry experts.
Her Home magzine is written to give women the information and tools to make informed decisions when building a new home or remodeling their
present home.
Utilizing smart, fresh layouts and plenty of beautiful photography, each article is written with practical, take-away value. There is a
need for this type of women's magazine, and Her Home magazine will work hard to fill that need.
Published quarterly, Her Home magazine covers the trends and issues that are shaping the world of homebuilding and home improvement projects.
Readers know that in every issue they will find insightful writing, beautiful photography, solid reporting and the magazine's knack for knowing what's
around the corner.
Her Home magazine is published by Design Basics Inc. in Omaha, Nebraska. Established in 1983,
Design Basics is one of the largest home plan design services in the nation. The company regularly
publishes a number of publications that are mailed directly to homebuilders from coast to coast. In addition,
Design Basics creates advertising and promotional materials as well as custom publishing projects for
clients. Design Basics has published dozens of plan books, many of which are distributed through national
bookstore chains. Producing this printed material is an award-winning marketing and publishing staff that includes researchers, writers, editors, graphic artists
and list management personnel.
