change is as good as a rest, or so the saying goes. As the summer sun gives way to the golden hues of autumn, I always like to reset my home, readying myself for the year’s next phase.

What you’ll find as you devour the new season’s offerings in these pages of this magazine is that we’re not quite ready to let go of those warm, inviting tones that speak of evenings in the garden catching the last of the light, or stretched out on the sofa relaxing.

Our focus on living rooms proves just that: comfort, texture and confident colour are the cornerstones of what we seek in our lounging spaces. Studio Braw’s Dundee project is a masterclass in colour-drenching, while our accessories round-up taps into a retro vibe that skilfully mingles earthy, Navajo-style patterns and boho textures.
