Adore Home Magazine

So, if you haven’t seen Adore Home Magazine, the new Australian online publication, then you are seriously missing out.  This new publication is packed full of design inspiration and beautiful images.

Since the seasons in Australia are opposite from ours, Adore Home has their summer issue out now.  It’s the perfect thing to read while snowed in for the day.  In case you haven’t heard, Atlanta got shut down by a snowstorm last night.  As I type I have 6” on my deck. I know, I know 6” isn’t much for someone who lives in say NY but we don’t have snow shovels and plows to clear anything away…plus we are getting ice too. 

Anyway, back to the magazine.  The cover story features the home of fitness trainer Sonja Bouw and her husband which Sonja designed herself.  She drew her design inspiration from where else but design blogs.  Score one for the design blog team!

My favorite room in her home is by far the sweet little nursery she designed for her daughter.  Adore does a fantastic job of providing the sources from which Sonja used to create this room.

Another feature that I’m loving is a feature where Adore creates story-board-like pages that highlight some of the latest and greatest in design.  Many of these items come from Australian online stores.  I have really enjoyed exploring some great new sources.
