6 ideal homes EDITOR'S NOTE It’s interesting how much of a big difference the simple act of moving the couch to the other side of the living room makes. Or how painting the bedroom walls with a fresh coat of off-white colour suddenly gives it the impression of breadth. Whatever small upgrades you attempt to do at home, one thing’s clear: little makeovers can breathe new life into any abode. In this edition of ideal homes, we present you the gift of timelessness. What you’ll read in the next pages is a well-thought-out compilation of 24 vital home improvement ideas that are not only perpetually relevant but also achievable and backed by industry experts. Whether you’ve been living in the same house for the last six months or six years, this carefully curated home makeover guide will remain a helpful tool that you (or whomever you pass this magazine on) could leaf through for many years to come!
