@homesandgardens architect Claire Sa and garden designer Andy Sturgeon.

Homes & Gardens forward on all platforms. Our objective
is to make this title as useful and inspirational a resource as
it can possibly be. Delightful interiors and gardens, insight
from experts, beautiful products or fascinating people... I
