SEOUL – 29CM, the curated lifestyle platform, announced on March 6 that its flagship annual home category promotion, '29HOME WEEK,' has achieved its most successful results to date.

According to data analyzed from February 23 to March 5, the platform saw a staggering 233% surge in Gross Merchandise Volume (GMV) for the home category compared to the same period last year. This threefold increase was accompanied by a 162% jump in the total number of purchasing customers, signaling a robust expansion of 29CM’s footprint in the interior design and lifestyle market.

 
Strategic Curation Drives Triple-Digit Growth
The record-breaking performance was largely driven by high-impact, brand-focused segments such as 'One Brand Day' and 'Encore Launchings.' These initiatives allowed specific brands to gain concentrated visibility among 29CM’s design-conscious user base.

Key highlights from participating brands include:

-Brandon: Achieved approximately 1.2 billion KRW in sales over the 10-day period through a strategic collaboration with home interior creators.
-Oguitt: The domestic home fabric brand reached nearly 500 million KRW in GMV.
-Wiggle Wiggle: The vibrant lifestyle brand recorded sales exceeding 400 million KRW.

The growth was not limited to domestic players. Global lighting giant Artemide saw its sales increase sevenfold (700%) year-over-year, while the prominent Korean furniture brand Casamia saw a fourfold (400%) increase. This suggests a balanced growth trajectory across both premium international labels and trendy local brands.

 
Innovative Offline Engagement: The Moving Truck
Beyond digital metrics, 29CM successfully bridged the gap between online shopping and physical experience. A standout feature of this year's promotion was the '29HOME Moving Truck,' a mobile showroom that traveled throughout major districts in Seoul for seven days.

"The moving truck served as a physical touchpoint that maximized brand awareness and brought the curated 29CM aesthetic directly to the streets," a company spokesperson noted.
Additionally, the 'Tomorrow’s Taste Kit' event—which offered curated sets for specific living spaces like the kitchen and bedroom—drew over 140,000 participants, highlighting the high level of consumer engagement with 29CM’s storytelling-driven commerce.

 
Market Implications
Industry analysts view these results as a testament to 29CM’s unique ability to curate "lifestyle tastes" rather than just selling products. By leveraging content creators and interactive offline events, 29CM has solidified its position as a leading destination for the "home-styling" generation, which prioritizes personal expression within their living spaces.

As the home and interior market continues to evolve toward personalized curation, 29CM’s data-driven yet aesthetic approach appears to be setting a new standard for lifestyle e-commerce in Korea.
