New Inside Out mag hits news stands tomorrow

By Jen Bishop โ€ข

FacebookPinEmailTweet

The new look Inside Out magazine hits news stands tomorrow and here’s my sneak peek copy. On first glance, the new design is modern and fresh. Glad to see they kept the iconic masthead but introduced a glossy cover with nice new fonts.

So what’s new?

  • a dedicated renovation section (and judging by the number of people who watch The Block, I’d say that’ll be popular!)
  • a bumper shopping and news section
  • a brand new entertaining and food section

It’s definitely more Real Living than Belle and I get the feeling they’re trying to appear less design-snobby and more accessible. The only thing missing is a mention of Interiors Addict in the must-read blogs section! ๐Ÿ˜‰

It’s new editor Claire Bradley’s second issue and it will no doubt take a bit of time to get more of an idea of the new look and feel. Love to hear what you think when you pick up a copy.

Me and @fantasticfurniture go WAY back! When I fir Me and @fantasticfurniture go WAY back! When I first came to Australia in my 20s, it's where I headed to buy everything I needed for my first apartment at an incredible price! And I've loved watching the range get more and more impressive over the years as my knowledge of furniture has increased. I had no idea how extensive their Aussie Made sofa range was though. I'd love you to check out the options via link in bio as I think you'll be impressed! I think we have a renewed appreciation for Aussie Made and supporting local manufacturing and jobs and this is a great success story. We love a bit of high low decorating, and turns out Fantastic Furniture is a great place to find your family lounge, a special accent chair, an extra ottoman for occasional seating and so much more.

How gorgeous is this Brisbane kids' bedroom?! 

@brittwhitestudio worked closely with the boys (aged 7 and 9) to understand their needs with a bespoke bunk bed solution crafted by BRC Cabinets, featuring ample storage as well as an under-stair hidey-hole, a useful reading nook for books and a built-in charger for electronics. Local craftsmen Emmettโ€™s Ropes designed and hand-tied the ropework on the top bunk and the supporting pillar beneath.

Wallpaper in every single room! What do you recko Wallpaper in every single room!

What do you reckon? You'd think it would be overkill but it isn't because so many of the designs are subtle yet still impactful.

Head over to the blog to see how @grafico_walls transformed this blank canvas Melbourne townhouse with their products, which you've probably seen on The Block over the years. And read how Damian Corney has grown this Melbourne business with wife Adele and a growing team. There's also a look inside the very cool Motley Hotel which has used a whopping 4km of their wallpaper throughout!

You can also watch a video tour with Bec Douros as the house featured on Open Homes Australia over the weekend.

Homeowner Briony Marsh says: Itโ€™s totally changed our home lifestyle now we can sit outside on the lounge in the sun or shade, be in the pool, spa, sauna or cooking pizzas and hanging out with friends. It sounds cliched but it really feels like we are on holiday at home!โ€

Head over to the blog to see the finer details, including a sauna and a seriously good looking copper pizza oven. There's a lot packed into this space!

Located inside a 1912 sandstone villa in Adelaideโ€™s Kensington, this bathroom makeover combines classic and contemporary elements that complement the homeโ€™s original, period features. 

Designed by the homeโ€™s owner @designby_Tahirih, who is a property stylist too, the renovation came sooner than expected after water ingress made the makeover of their only bathroom an urgent necessity!

The whole project cost an impressive $20k, project managed herself.

    Hi Jen, When I looked at the cover I was excited as it looked fresh and inviting, however, I do agree with you and it is more Real Living than Belle! And dont get me wrong I also love Real Living but that’s another magazine with its own look. I’ve read Inside Out since the first issue and the reason I love/d? Inside Out was that it was different to the other magazines and it had a point of difference – not as flashy as Belle and Vogue Living but it had a mixture of high end interiors/houses to ones that were achieveable for real people. To tell you the truth I just flicked through it and gave it to my sister the same day – which never happens! I subscribed, before this issue for another 2 years so I hope it doesn’t get too choppy with too many features. I suppose I should really write to the editor….Many thanks, Mary Anne

    Hi Jen

    I’m about to write to Inside Out’s new editor but thought I would warm up here.

    I am very disappointed to have lost the magazine I have come to love over the years. NewsLifeMedia has ditched something unique for something extremely ho-hum. What a waste of all the years of creativity that gave Inside Out, as Mary Anne pointed out, a point of difference – a magazine with heart. Now it’s all DIY and how-to ideas. Why reinvent the wheel? So many magazines already have that corner of the market covered.

    I’m with Mary Anne- I’ll be palming the Nov-Dec issue off to the first person I can think of who might enjoy it. I will also be hoarding all my back issues, because as far as I can tell, InsideOut Magazine is no longer and a ‘Real Living’ Clone has stepped into its place.

    I haven’t yet seen the new look so I can’t comment on that. I’ve been reading the magazine more or less continuously since its inception and I used to really love it, but just over a year ago it seemed to move from being reasonably eclectic and quirky to having a full-on, all-else-excluding love affair with everything mid-century. That’s when it lost my attention. We rented out our house to them for a photo shoot a while back and I got a year’s subscription as part of the low fee. Otherwise I think it and I might have parted company some time back. I still don’t love it, but there have at least been a few interesting issues in the last year. I’m looking forward to taking a look at the magazine under new editorship.

    I have 100 issues of InsideOut mag tucked away safely in my home. I think that’s where my collection might end, as I am truly disappointed with the ‘new look’. I had the exact same thought as you – that InsideOut’s ‘new look’ is just Real Living’s current one. I wonder if it was the editorial change driving the ‘new look’ or marketing? Whatever, I’m certainly not interested in buying it anymore if this is how it’s going to be from now on. I feel like we just broke up, Inside Out, and guess what, it’s not me, it’s you.
