What is a good interior and exterior of the home design magazine?
My husband and I are buying a "fixer" home. What is a good magazine of ideas both inside and outside design (including the gardens, bridges, construction, architecture, style, floors, kitchens, bathrooms, etc. …)?
Laurie C has some good suggestions (I'm sort of prejudices about one in particular!). FYI Fine Homebuilding includes a mix of technical equipment for contractors and design-oriented material homeowners. On this old house, you can get a great many good resources on our site, including free video clips showing how to install, repair or maintain all sorts of things in the house. Here is our directory of top issues for improvement: http://www.thisoldhouse.com/toh/home-improvement-topics And if you want to see what's in the latest issue of the journal, simply click the "Magazine" button on the right side of the page under "Search" window. Of course, we also send to free newsletters out of 5 subjects (one covers the design and remodeling solutions room). You can register for one or all of them.
