It’s all in the planning. That's why our annual Building & Renovating Guide exists – so you can find the best in the business to help you navigate a way through house projects both large and small. This practical reference booklet, free with issue 109 of Homes & Interiors Scotland, is full of expertise to get you started.

Where do you want to go this summer? Chances are we can take you there. Let us transport you to Florida (on page 206) where designer Summer Thornton has given an impressive home real holiday vibes. How about Long Island (page 190), where a white timber Victorian house replete with wraparound porch has been resuscitated, in the best possible fashion, by designer Alfredo Paredes. He has turned it into a grown-up seafront retreat, the kind of place you could imagine Diane Keaton hanging out in a Nora Ephron movie.
Wherever you’re headed this summer, start here.

Hello summer, is that you? Looking out the window, it’s hard to tell, but leaf through the pages of our latest edition and there’s a definite seasonal shift. And we’re here for it. It’s not just colour that’s playing a part in lifting our spirits; pattern, in all its maximalist glory, is back with a bang. Check out our Exteriors focus too, where getting your garden prepped for balmy sundowners and alfresco brunches is on the menu. All we need now is the sun to show up.

What does luxury mean to you? Our concept of luxury has evolved since we published our first special LUXE edition back in 2019. A
lot has happened in the world since then, altering priorities and forcing us to reassess what matters. We’re still partial to a little indulgence; it’s just that what feels like a treat now is perhaps less about grand statements and more about finding what brings us comfort and joy.
Our homes embody that sentiment, and the rooms we’ve spent so much time in recently are getting some well-deserved attention. Putting together this special issue has been illuminating, showing us that what’s really on our wishlists is the unique, the handmade, the pieces that’ll last a lifetime and tell stories for generations to come.

A new year always dawns with us making promises to ourselves. Perhaps your focus for 2022 is to devote more time to friends and family, or to take up a new hobby, or to freshen up your interior design scheme. Whether your resolution is personal or practical, you’ll find something in the pages of this issue to help you achieve it.

If your list of New Year’s resolutions includes a renovation or decor project, big or small, our free annual Design Directory is the little black book for you. It’s packed with professionals who’ll help you get started. You’ll find the very best Scottish architects, designers, trades and specialists in the pages of this invaluable guide, offering advice, predicting trends and inspiring a fresh approach. Why not bring in the New Year with a new look? Your home will thank you for it.

Take our latest edition as a sourcebook heading into the new year. Our annual Art Guide 21 is a masterclass in the practicalities of how to buy art, where to fi nd it and what to choose. If you’re looking to start a collection, it’s a must-read. Gift-giving can be a headache, so let us help take the pressure off: the array of artists and makers living and working in Scotland and available to see both in galleries and online should shrink your Christmas shopping list instantly.
