At Home With

When we visited Neudorf Hall in the Upper Moutere, Nelson we knew we had found our cover home for our winter warming issue - June/July. The redesign of this former school hall, by Architectural Designer Brian Johns' won the category for Residential Alterations and Additions in last years ADNZ awards. The judges appreciated the way the design transforms the old building into a series of generous new spaces that retain sound references to the older fabric; the final result is a warm and inviting family home. The stunning house is home to Michael Macmillan, Jackie Crow and their daughter Poppy. Operating as their family home and a bed and breakfast, the beautiful chalet style and open fire provide the perfect spot for enjoying winter.

Take a sneak peak inside Neudorf Hall below, and for more check out our latest issue on sale nationwide on Monday! Enjoy.
 

In our latest issue (Feb/Mar - on sale now!) I had the pleasure of talking to textile designer Alison Norris-Baber of Agnes Coy and Landscape Designer Georgie P about working from home and setting up offices for their unique needs.

For Alison "The main priority was to have a space that was separate from my home so that it could be opened up to the public. Much of the work that I do is quite intricate and so somewhere that was flooded with light was of great importance to me." We couldn't fit all the images of Alison's office and studio in the magazine, so thought we would share some more with you here.
