From the team at NZ House & Garden [NZ House & Garden] [NZ House & Garden - From the Editor]( Hi {NAME}, Itâs our birthday and weâre celebrating 30 years as your favourite magazine. The July issue â on sale today â is a special bumper one created to mark this exciting milestone, so donât miss out on getting your copy. Inside we take you on a trip down memory lane with a selection of covers, including the magazineâs first, published in 1994. We also have todayâs take on styles that were popular when NZ House & Garden was born, along with a fun assortment of homeware, perfect for your own house party. Weâve also compiled a stellar lineup of houses for your enjoyment, starting with an extraordinary art-filled Wellington apartment that its owners loved so much they bought it back after years living elsewhere in the city. The whole place demonstrates a commitment to supporting New Zealand artists and makers, and is an ode to colour and pattern. Iâm confident youâll find our Levin garden uplifting and celebratory as well, with its riot of colour, texture and form. Building a lush rural garden was the dream of this self-taught gardener and in 2016, he retired and has devoted himself to bringing this vision to life. Inspirational! Whether this is the first issue of NZ House & Garden youâve bought or youâre one of many who tell us they have never missed a copy for the past three decades, thank you for your support. We love what we do and we hope you do too.

The grand proportions of the new house work well with the symmetry of the design, and its grey-green colour scheme makes for a serene environment. It's in our July issue, on sale now. An expat's colourful Sydney home Bold hues and cleverness have transformed this two-storey Paddington terrace house owned by a New Zealander and her English husband. The home is a joyful incarnation of a heritage house that has been designed for grown-ups but with children top-of-mind, and its renovation has managed to add space without making the home any bigger. â High art at a fabulous apartment in Wellington When the chance arose to buy back an apartment on the two top floors of the QT Wellington hotel, these art-collecting owners couldn't resist. Among its drawcards was the location in the centre of town and its spectacular views of the city and harbour, while its generous size allows plenty of room for their large art collection. â Sponsored content The best of both worlds Lifestyle and location combine with board and batten exterior cladding and extensive outdoor areas to keep everyone entertained in this Waikato home.
