Winter is upon us, and with the change in the temperatures comes the inevitable series of holiday celebrations that brings us from Thanksgiving through December to Ash Wednesday. It’s the best time to open our homes to family, friends and neighbors, to share some good cheer and to make a house into an inviting, warm space even when the party is over.
Our winter cover feature is a real stunner and checks all of the boxes for classic design, eye to detail and preservation of its original spirit, yet in a new way. We knew we had to share this special Garden District renovation as soon as we saw it. This historic project is an aspirational project full of design ideas and beautiful moments that have us making a list of interior projects for our own space.
We also highlight a Bayou St. John labor of love. This classic cottage combines the heart and soul of its owners with the essence of its surrounding New Orleans community. Antiques meets modern. Color meets mindful design. It’s a balance that pays off with a house that meets all needs of a truly comfortable home.
Finally, our winter “Inspiration Board” provides a design notebook with ways to incorporate some of the most current interior design style trends into your own home, curated picks of color and paint swatches for interiors, plus a pop of whimsy or modern décor to make your space unique. Be sure to bookmark for the rest of this season and into the next!
As always, we have design news and inspiration, decorating tips from the pros, entertaining ideas and recipes to warm your home throughout the season.
We hope this winter is a wonderland of good cheer and fun with family and friends. Grab a warm drink, relax and get cozy. Spring is right around the corner!
