Oneflare.com has today unveiled an Australian first: Oneflare Scrapbooks, which is like Pinterest for home services, a design inspiration tool powered by 37,000 Australian home service businesses.

Oneflare Scrapbooks is the first end-to-end visual tool which allows users to easily gather their design ideas, plan their home improvement projects and engage or hire reputable suppliers, all through Oneflare.com. With over 90,000 users Oneflare is launching Scrapbooks to the largest community of design enthusiasts in Australia.

The benefits of Oneflare Scrapbooks:

Be inspired: Design enthusiasts can pin images of design ideas they like from the web or their own device to their personal Scrapbook account
It’s social: Users can share, favourite and comment on other users’ pictures and projects
Connect to design experts: Users have access to thousands of design/building/renovation experts they can collaborate with to plan their dream home
It’s transparent: Scrapbooks allows businesses to upload a portfolio of their previous work. Customers can see reviews and recommendations from previous clients.
The entire process takes place through the Oneflare site: It saves time, money and ultimately takes the hassle out of planning any home improvement project

“We’re truly excited about launching Oneflare Scrapbooks”, says Marcus Lim, CEO and co-founder of Oneflare.
