About The Home Almanac

The Home Almanac began as a question: why is most home content written for people who have already arrived? The house is perfect, the palette is considered, the shelves are curated. But most of us live somewhere in between - a rented flat with bad lighting, a house we love but can't quite afford to finish, a garden that is mostly weeds and good intentions.

We started this publication for those people. For the renter making deliberate choices about what goes on the walls. For the first-time buyer who wants to understand their home's history. For the urban dweller growing tomatoes on a south-facing windowsill. For anyone who believes that how you live in a space matters more than what the space looks like in a photograph.

How we work

Every piece in The Home Almanac is written by one of our six bylined authors, each with their own city, their own beat, and their own way of looking at domestic life. We don't publish content - we publish writing. The difference matters.

Our authors are Sarah Chen in New York (small spaces and rentals), James Hartley in Sheffield (gardening and DIY), Mei Nakamura in Vancouver (minimalism and Japanese influence), Hugo Ferris in Melbourne (design history), Priya Osei in London (seasonal living and hosting), and Eleanor Whitmore in the Cotswolds (heritage homes and slow renovation).

Editorial approach

We publish when we have something worth saying. We don't fill a content calendar. We don't run affiliate programmes or sponsored placements. The Home Almanac earns trust by being honest about what we know, what we don't know, and what we find beautiful - and by being willing to say when something is overrated.
