EDITOR’S LETTER

ell, see you later 2020 – you were a bit of a niiiightmare – and hello 2021! I like to think of myself as an eternal optimist – deluded as it often is – I always think, keep on forging ahead – show up, do the work, be – because when you are scrolling those aisles we stand out as a glossy main attraction. We all now know that people being relegated to their home compound with just beautiful homes magazines has set us up for 2021 as the year of the HOME goal. Driven by interior inspiration we have all become maniacal about property – whether it’s moving, redesigning or enhancing – it seems everyone has the urge to Move It On Up! Every single person I speak to connected with homes and interiors is busier than ever as home pride soars. The tradies, the art hangers, the upholsterers, the builders, architects, lamp fixers, removalists and retailers are booming and we are very happy to be part of this giant circle as Australia’s biggest publisher of homes titles.
