05 Mar Three Must-Read Interior Design Magazines You Don’t Want to Miss

Most of us still remember a world before Pinterest, before Instagram and before all of the new media that have digitized many of our experiences. This was a time when glossy magazines were the unchallenged go-to places for seekers of beauty and inspiration for all things in vogue – luxury, fashion, art, interior design and so much more. But with the advent and proliferation of social media and digitized information of every format, many predicted that the end of print-based magazine and books would surly be at hand… Luckily however, that has not been the case.

Today, various online platforms and supplements have happily enhanced our experiences in many ways – we have as yet been unable to replace the unique, physical affects of print-based media and demand has never been greater. There is still nothing out there to replicate the satisfaction of time spent thumbing through the beautiful pictures and finding inspirations amongst the glossy pages. Today’s magazines remained the go-to-place for curated inspirations for designers, visionaries and dreamers alike.

Here are our Design Team’s Top Three, for your reading pleasure:
