So often I hear from fellow interior design enthusiasts who are disenchanted with the content of shelter magazines these days, so it is very exciting when a new one comes along that grabs your attention! Meet Frederic, formerly known as The Schumacher Bulletin, led by Editor-in-Chief Dara Caponigro. Delivered to your door three times a year, Frederic is a glossy lifestyle magazine filled with a range of topics that comprise the well-lived life—interior and garden design, architecture, entertaining, art, color trends, gift guides and more.
Frederic is named after the visionary Frederic Schumacher, who founded F. Schumacher & Co in 1889. He had the uncanny ability to predict what was coming next in the world of interior design. “That nimbleness plus his insatiable passion for what he did are the same qualities we aspire to reflect in every issue of this magazine, so choosing Frederic as our new name was only natural,” said Caponigro. And a note to designers – Projects don’t need to have Schumacher products in them to be considered!
The inaugural issue features the newly decorated Mayflower Inn by Celerie Kemble, the romantic South African home of Serena Crawford, Dara Caponigro‘s 1920s Georgian in the Bronx, the homes of David Netto, a twist on tradition by Barrie Benson, an interview with Brigette Romanek, and more. Let’s take a sneak peek inside…
