The popular homes title is for anyone who loves great design and beautiful objects from every era, says Immediate Media Co. It now features fresh new sections, more antiques coverage, the inside track on buying at auction and even more distinctive homes brimming with inspiration – including one with a noteworthy collection that readers are able to visit for themselves in the new ‘open house’ series.
According to the publishers, readers will have the chance to discover the hidden stories behind prominent antiques, from the fascinating tale of Napoleon's hat to the rich and varied history of the quilt. Plus there are practical guides to collecting, decorating, buying at antiques markets and fairs, and how best to display your beautiful finds.
Additionally, the magazine will be introducing readers to brand new columnist Gordon Watson, a star of Channel 4’s Four Rooms, whose stories sparkle with knowledge and wit.
The May issue also includes a free notebook available in one of two patterns by designer wallpaper brand Sanderson.
Homes & Antiques editor Samantha Scott-Jeffries says: “We are all incredibly excited about the relaunch of Homes & Antiques and to have the opportunity to take the title, with its 21-year history, on the next stage of its journey.
“Homes & Antiques is the only newsstand home interest title with a focus on antiques. As vintage, mid-century modern, retro and pieces with provenance continue to gain popularity, there is no better time to refresh the title to tap into these trends as well as the popularity of antiques. This can be seen by the daily broadcast of television shows on the subject and the popularity of antiques fairs and flea markets across the country.”
The May issue of Homes & Antiques went on sale 2nd April.
