Homes & Gardens UK - 09.2019

I am delighted to be able

to announce the first-ever

Homes & GardensHouse Tours.

On 10 and 11 October, we will be

opening up six beautiful homes around

Fulham, London. This is an event

concept pioneered by our sister brand

Livingetc, so I have already seen how

brilliant the day is. It’s a unique chance

to discover creative schemes in person

and to meet designers behind beautiful

homes. It truly brings the H&G experience

to life; I hope to see many of you there.

Looking through this issue as I write, I am struck

that it is an uplifting one, full of passion, with fresh ideas

and personal looks. All of the houses we show are bold in

their own way and each has been painstakingly reconfigured

by a visionary mind. An interior design practice for your

little black book is behind one of this month’s highlights:

the Victorian home created by K&H Design (page 74).

What I love about their work is the attention to detail.

The spark for our decorating story (page 34) was the

wealth of Indian-inspired patterns and joyful colours in the

current fabric and wallpaper collections. We’ve mixed blues

with greens and pinks with oranges to give schemes that are

cheerful and confident. I hope it inspires whatever interior

project you might be working on. Or at least strikes an

upbeat note and raises a smile.
