How to use black in a modern kitchen

The quintessential outdoors gal, Maddie suffers keenly from wanderlust and is always on the hunt for adventure - whether it's hiking to Everest Base Camp in Nepal or discovering the 100s of beaches in Bali and along the Australian coastline.

In 2000, when editor and writer Sue pressed pause on London life and came to Sydney to relaunch New Woman magazine, she envisaged a six-month stint in the sun. Endless summers and many career moves later, she still calls Australia home. With a degree in English Literature and Art History and a background in women’s lifestyle publishing, Sue has worked across a variety of brands and platforms. For eight years she was editor-in-chief of Women’s Health (the first edition outside America) and later edited Homes+, a job that confirmed ‘homes’ was where her heart is. These days, she considers herself lucky to focus on her passions  - travel and home interiors - and contributes to brands such as Home Beautiful, Australian House & Garden and Better Homes and Gardens. She loves patterns and prints, anything sage green, The Lost and Found Department in Hunters Hill and has a weakness for buying unique pieces on her travels, which invariably leads to overweight luggage. Sue also restores old furniture and recently went to her first embroidery workshop.
