Beacon of Light

With the mulled wine flowing, ornaments glittering and many loved ones reuniting – December has always been a time when this city brims with great joie de vivre and light-heartedness, and one that our team revels in as we put together our annual holiday issue featuring the most dazzling festive designs and covetable gifts.

But Christmas can also be a season of illumination – and not just in the sense of glowing décor, but a beam of energy that brightens up the world and brings hope and positivity to a new future. The magic of light is at the heart of this month’s issue, wonderfully showcased by lighting master Tino Kwan’s Happy Valley duplex where every corner basks in thoughtfully crafted radiance, de Gournay scion Hannah Cecil Gurney’s technicolour London lair, and more magnificent interiors and destinations across Bali and Perth, Shanghai, Copenhagen and Sicily. Over at the Home Journal office, we also just marked our 39th anniversary with a star-studded party that heralded our beginning of a new era – highlights from which you can relive in our Events pages.

From all of us at Home Journal, we wish you a very merry Christmas and many special memories created with your loved ones. Check out homejournal.com for more festive ideas, and remember – the future is bright.
