If you’re anything like me, you’ve spent the last year in your home, seeing things you’ve never noticed before. I’ve now memorized the exact color blue of my living room, learned which piece of furniture my cat likes best and realized how much dust my bookshelf collects. For many of us, the last year has made us ready for a change, especially within our own homes. Sometimes we need a little bit more help than a DIY painting job!
That’s why we decided to launch our first-ever Home + Design Awards this year—we wanted to celebrate the great businesses that call the Tristate home while also giving our readers some inspiration as they consider their own changes.
There’s plenty of inspiration outside the Home + Design Awards, too! Whether you’re looking for a style upgrade or a quick getaway, we cover it all in this issue. Cheers to summer being on the horizon, and new beginnings in and outside of our homes!
