Yes, it has found a new lease of life in France since 2014, but since its birth in 1946 on the other side of the Atlantic, Holiday has never lost sight of the innovative concept that set it apart from all the other magazines: combining literary journalismand artistic photography.

A magazine in which travel was merely the ideal pretext to give life to this vision, and additionally offered the luxury of time—to discover, observe and dream. For indeed, Holiday is an interlude suspended in time, where since the beginning, the idea has been neither to regret the past not to fantasize about the future, but to savor the path between the two, as Jack Kerouac, one of the magazine’s many prestigious contributors, used to say. So it is with these founding principles—the ones that have made it legendary and still give it such a special place—in mind that we have created Holiday Interiors and Gardens.

For interior decoration requires almost as much curiosity as travel and, in its own way, enables us to traverse eras, styles, cultures and continents. Besides, it is a free discipline that loves to break down the boundaries between creative fields. As proof, just think of interiors designed by Balthus and Cy Twombly, furniture crafted by Francis Bacon and Paul Poiret, Dante Ferretti’s set decors for Pasolini and

Scorsese movies, or even simply the sofa covered with Persian carpets in Sigmund Freud’s consulting room. All of them have stood the test of time and seem to defy trends.

Holiday too. The magazine has always striven to demonstrate that beauty is not a subject but rather a point of view. And here is ours, which y

ou will discover on these pages: interiors, gardens and objects,

through the words of the writers and the gaze of the photographers who inspire us and have enabled us to give life to this new adventure.
