Cabana is a heavyweight publication exploring the way people relate to interiors, from the grandest rooms to the smallest details. Every issue features a range of specially designed textiles on the front cover. In their words:
‘The German word gemütlich summons the Cabana vision, conveying an inviting feeling of warmth and sense of space. Whether it be a palazzo, a flat, a folly or a hut, the Cabana mood is an appreciation of the sensory and experiential characteristics of interiors.’
LVMH Métiers d'Art is responsible for the caramel-hued cover and gilded edges of this 23rd issue, which declares itself ‘a true ode to craftsmanship’, introducing a new craft-focussed section at the end of the magazine. Find Kenyan beadwork, ornamental plaster, weavers in Indonesia, and a ceramicist, but not before 400+ pages of high gloss interiors.
