Editor Nathalie Marquez Courtney welcomes you to the new issue of Image Interiors & Living

Welcome to our September/October issue, where we (reluctantly) begin to say goodbye to lazy summer evenings and get excited by all that autumn brings new trends, cosy home-cooked dinners and, of course, a bit of a stationery spree.

I’ve always loved the new-book feeling that autumn brings, and that renewed sense of possibility and energy. In keeping with this mood, the issue features stunning desk accessories paired with tasty and healthy lunch recipes, killer tips on decluttering and – to keep you inspired to tackle that mess – a house tour of a gorgeous pared-back space, as well as a style shoot that celebrates finding beauty in the simplicity of nature and working with neutral earthy tones.

Above: I’m in love with our cover story, Pearl Collins’ West Cork family home. Sneak a peek here.

As always, this issue is a celebration of new and exciting Irish design, from beautiful handmade wooden boards to cool new homeware collections and gorgeous handmade screen prints. I hope you’ll discover someone new and be inspired to buy Irish this season.
