Your Home – August 2019

(Nancy Kaufman) #1
We all long for a lovely balmy summer,
but if all the sunshine leaves you feeling
a little hot under the collar we’ve got
heaps of great ideas to help you
keep your cool this month.
For starters, our delicious summer
drink ideas on page 100 are ideal for
quenching your thirst on a sunny day.
Meanwhile, if a refreshing shower
is what you long for, then turn to
page 54 for our round-up of the
sleekest, most stylish wetrooms
and walk-in showers to suit
bathrooms both big and small.
Having trouble sleeping on these warm nights? Then check out
our beautiful bed linen feature(p.38), where you’ll find a host
of cool cotton designs that will help you sleep more soundly. Plus,
we’ve got lots of affordable finishing touches to complete your
bedroom look, whether it’s modern, classic or feminine.
When it comes to colour, nothing is more refreshing and cooling
than mint green. Forget the sickly pastel shades of old, we’ll show
you how to use this new neutral to give
every room a clean, contemporary feel
that’s bang on trend (p.22).
You can’t have failed to notice the
popularity of vegan food, but have you ever
thought about how vegan-friendly your décor is? Turn to page 42
to discover how to give your home an ethical makeoverthat
looks every bit as good as it feels.
After a day at the seaside, many of
us come home dreaming of living by
the water, but how easy is it to do?
Check out the options,
plus discover the pros
and cons on page 106.
