Searle is the first Editor-in-Chief of RealHomes.com and has plans to grow the brand to reach its full potential, making it a one-stop destination for interior inspiration and advice.

With over 20 years of experience in the homes and interiors market, Searle has overseen the launch of 4Homes magazine and the online website for Channel 4, and she was previously Associate Editor of Ideal Home.

Building on the established foundation of the digital brand’s 180k unique monthly online users, Searle plans to align the magazine and website both in look and feel.

Searle commented on her new role: “I’m really excited to have been given the opportunity to take RealHomes.com to the next level. It’s an exciting time for the brand across all platforms.”

She joins Future from Tailored Content, a content and social media marketing company she founded with her business partner and former Executive Editor of Ideal Home. Searle’s background extends across platforms, spanning broadcast print and digital, with experience on titles including HuffPost and Houzz.

RealHomes.com will incorporate the Real Homes and Period Living brands, while consolidating Future’s proprietary ecommerce platform to better connect readers with the content they love.
