May 2026
Bold style is the mood for May’s Spring Decorating issue, and change is in the air. We kick things off with our cover story, and you’ve never seen a cottage like this before! Katherine Newman reimagines an Edwardian farmhouse as a cottage retreat full of peach, dreamy blue, and fanciful Scandi-style folkloric wallpaper. Kate Stuart transforms a Toronto Victorian with a trad sensibility and a dose of high glamour. See a colourful NYC pied-à-terre designed by Canadian designer Garrow Kedigian, who doesn’t hold back his use of orange. And take inspiration from Deputy Editor Emma Reddington’s feature, The Great Refresh, to learn how fabric, paint and wallpaper can reinvigorate a room. Irish author Clodagh McKenna shares healthy recipes from her latest cookbook, Clodagh’s Happy Cooking.
