New Home and Garden magazine hits newsstands
6.6.06
(GREAT BARRINGTON, Mass., June 1, 2006) -- Berkshire Living Home+Garden, a new annual publication by the award-winning regional lifestyle and culture publication Berkshire Living, went on sale on newsstands today and arrived in Berkshire Living subscribers' mailboxes this week. The 96-page full color glossy is devoted entirely to home design, architecture, gardening, and home decor.
"The responses to the Home section in each issue of Berkshire Living and to our first annual special Home Design issue in September 2005 were so encouraging that we decided to roll out a magazine devoted in its entirety to the home," said Berkshire Living publisher Michael Zivyak.
Subtitled "The Good Life at Home," Berkshire Living Home+Garden, which was edited by noted home design author and frequent Berkshire Living contributor Gladys Montgomery and overseen by Berkshire Living editor-in-chief Seth Rogovoy, includes a profile of renowned interior designer Bunny Williams of Falls Village, Conn., by New York Times writer Dan Shaw, and a look at a startingly contemporary, op-art style house in South Egremont, Mass., by Shonquis Moreno, an editor at the award-winning Dwell magazine.
Also profiled are sculptor and landscape architect Jon Piasecki of West Stockbridge, Mass., and architect Larry Wente of Millerton, N.Y. Readers visit screenwriter Maria Nation's spectacular garden in Ashley Falls, Mass., and museum curator Deborah Rothschild's Japanese-influenced kitchen in Williamstown, Mass. Hancock Shaker Village curator Christian Goodwillie explains the enduring appeal of Shaker furniture, and Montgomery, the author of the new guidebook, Antiquing Weekends, takes readers on a whirlwind tour of the region's antiques shops.
The magazine includes many full-page color photographs and spreads of gorgeous home interiors, exteriors and gardens, and even features an innovative interview with Edith Wharton, who set the tone for Berkshire home design with her landmark guidebook, The Decoration of Houses. Fully eighty-two businesses participated as charter advertisers in the first annual issue of Berkshire Living Home+Garden, which will remain on newsstands until next May, when the second annual Berkshire Living Home+Garden is scheduled to be published.
Berkshire Living Home+Garden is sold on newsstands throughout the greater Berkshire region and in major cities throughout New England and the Northeast, including New York, Boston, Hartford, Providence, Albany, and Saratoga, N.Y. The magazine is also available as part of a paid subscription to Berkshire Living, and in-room at many of the region's upscale inns and hotels.

I remember Shaker furniture, the moving chairs and sculpture. A state magazine is not a new idea. The state funded the now- defunct Maryland Magazine for more than 25 years starting in the mid- 1960s. It was sold to the private sector in 1992 due to state cutbacks and bounced around from owner to owner.
