House Emoji

Travel

A simple graphic of a house with a brown or red roof, two windows, and a front door. It serves as a clear, recognizable signifier for residential living or a private dwelling.

Usage Context

Widely used to represent one's own residence, a place to stay, or the concept of 'home.' It is frequently used in location sharing or when planning a meetup. It often acts as a friendly contrast to the more industrial 🏢 or the commercial 🏪.

History

Part of the early emoji sets from Japanese mobile carriers, this house icon was standardized in Unicode 6.0 in 2010. Its design draws from the ubiquitous simplified house icons found in early navigation software and real estate listings on the web.
