Here’s what editor-in-chief Suzanne Dimma has to say:

“Our December 2013 issue is jam-packed with a wide array of fantastic content, from holiday entertaining and decorating to amazing makeovers, stellar interiors and big personalities. A single image just didn’t sum up everything that our readers are getting when they pick up a copy and, on an increasingly competitive newsstand, we felt a graphic grid would make the issue really stand out. In the digital era, print products must sell the depth of their content even harder, so giving readers a little taste of everything was a natural choice. The finished product feels more intriguing and a true reflection of the issue’s content.”

Looks like a winner!
