Kinfolk Volume 11

Book excerpt: THE HOME ISSUE The spring 2014 edition of Kinfolk explores the meaning of home, what it looks like, how different people arrange them and the qualities that the best ones share. Whether you live with your best friend, partner, strangers or a lazy hound, your concept of home will change with every coat of paint. It’s what (and who) you fill it with that counts. If you're trying to cultivate a new abode or invigorate your old one, the Home Issue will encourage you to think in new ways about the space where you spend much of your life. The team has cast a wide net across its creative community to photograph some amazing homes and offer casual, comfortable entertaining ideas for our readers that will be relatable, no matter what kind of tiny box they might be living in. This issue will feature the usual mix of photo essays, reflective essays, simple recipes, illustrated guides and lifestyle tips. This special 176-page issue features a 46-page Home Tours section with lots of images from around the world.
