Homestyle – January 2019

This month marks National Bed Month, which highlights the importance of a good night’s sleep. Getting the ‘feel’ right in your bedroom is important, so we bring you three colour looks to help update yours – from this year’s hottest hue, Living Coral, to sunshine shades through to a soothing dusky pink, each will make a stylish impact. Find it on page 63. Elsewhere we have seven interior trends on page 74 that are set to be big this season. Terrazzo is still huge (quite literally) but we’re also seeing some fun breakthroughs like otter and donkey motifs! As always we have more inspiring real homes for you. Cover girl Lucy’s kitchen renovation on page 92 was a big job but just look at it now – it’s the dream entertaining space. Jennifer’s gorgeous rental property on page 14 is also truly inspiring as she has maintained a great flow throughout with a subtle colour scheme and lots of plants. If you’re looking to get on the property ladder then take a look at our feature on page 82 – it’s packed with everything you need to know. Of course this month also marks Mother’s Day, so on page 120 we have three sweet treats to make for the special lady in your life. There’s also delicious pasta dishes from chef Gino D’Acampo on page 118 – enjoy!
