Welcome

Our October issue of Ireland’s Homes Interiors & Living is packed full of design ideas, advice, new releases and real home inspiration. As always we take a tour around four stunning readers’ homes and chat to their owners about the work they’ve put in to achieve their dream property. There’s a mid-century masterpiece in Belfast, a renovated 1920’s house in Malahide, a beautiful home in Ballsbridge and a Cork property that’s been passed through the generations.

We also have features on bathrooms and seating suggestions to help inspire you with your own project, plus two design-led kitchens and heaps of expert advice to guide you. In our latest new feature our resident architects, 2020 Architects, answer your building and design queries.

In our travel section we discover a few of Dublin’s hotspots while Marty O’Neill discusses the pros and cons of choosing an Airbnb for your next getaway. We’ve also got gardening ideas, delicious recipes from Irish chef Anna Haugh and decorative DIY ideas for the new season.

And last but definitely not least, with our 30th birthday celebrations very much underway, we have five pairs of tickets to give away for our awards extravaganza on 1st November.
