Magazine

Haven is a brand new home and living magazine for a brand-new world. With many of us spending more time at home than ever, our homes are our safe haven from the challenges we face beyond our front doors. Step inside the pages and stay awhile. We celebrate everything that makes a house a home — inviting spaces, inspiring people, delicious food, and homes with heart.

Editor’s note

Haven

EDIT Whakatika • Join us for a stroll through Auckland’s Ponsonby with a local beauty doctor, then head out to the west coast to drop in on a prodigal potter. Plus, catch up on the latest in style news and trends, and curl up with the cosiest finds for winter.

MY HAVEN • Dr Catherine Stone, founder of The Face Place medical spas, sees the beauty in the natural surrounds and nourishing eateries of her Auckland suburb.

NOTEWORTHY • Bright, shiny things and stylish discoveries.

CURRENT CRUSH

SNUGGLE UP • Settle in for a cosy afternoon indoors, solo or shared, with inviting textures, natural tones and snug layers.

Coming full circle • Contemporary artist Kate Newby has returned to her family’s property at Te Henga for a peaceful yet productive homecoming.

LIVE Te Oranga

CURIOS GEORGE • A barn conversion in Hawke’s Bay tells a tigerish tale of hunting and collecting.

SWIPE the STYLE

Island Bay on a plate • A globetrotting food lover transforms a disjointed Wellington villa into a seamless forever home.

SWIPE the STYLE

WHEN LESS IS MORE • Down the back of a garden near Tauranga, a clever new home for six doubles as a homeschooling and working-from-home space – all neatly contained within a 60sqm footprint.

SWIPE the STYLE

TRANSFORM Whakahuri • We visit a Wellington house that’s had a glassy, classy do-over, get driven to abstraction with striking DIY wall art, retreat into calm and cosy interiors, and switch things up with the latest in innovative eco-friendly lighting.

High on the hills • It was all about the glorious sea views for this glassy Wellington renovation.

SWIPE the STYLE

TIME TO NEST • With winter here and much of the world still in lockdown, cocooning has never felt more appealing. Each of the spaces in these pages – from a contemporary urban apartment to a country home – creates a tangible calmness with an appealing mix of tactile surfaces, harmonious tones and textured fabrics.

Winter warmers • Cosy meets high-tech in the latest smart-home innovations for the cooler months. These efficient heating solutions can be controlled by your devices, so you can be both snug and smug as you dial up the comfort factor.

IT’S ALL LIGHT • Create eco-friendly ambience with the right balance of natural and artificial lighting.

DIY abstraction • Want a weekend project that takes little time, effort or money? This one gives you all of the above plus a nice piece of art for your abode.

EAT Kaingia • The consolation for the arrival of cooler weather is the cosiness it brings to our indoor lives – and what’s more warming to hearts and bodies than a winter dinner party, Nici Wickes-style? Plus, we bake some not-so-humble sweet pies, and sample the latest food trends.

Winter gathering • A dinner party is such an intimate way of entertaining. I like to mix it up with a formal, plated starter followed by a casual approach to the main, setting out a simple feast for everyone to help themselves to. There’s a comfortable, familial feel as guests pass plates around. To finish, it’s a lovely surprise to have a choice of desserts – in this case, gorgeous winter pavlova and easy crème brûlée. Gather your friends and enjoy.

Sweetie PIE • Add new twists to old classics with these fun variations from food writer Shelly Westerhausen...
