Welcome to the issue<br />

Feathering a family nest in the UAE, when you’re far from<br />

home, can take time, money, and a whole lot of creativity.<br />

The good news is that, whether you’re renting for just a<br />

while or putting down roots for the long haul, there are lots<br />

of ways to make your own mark on a place. In this issue,<br />

we have devoted a whopping 30 pages to happy family<br />

living. From brood-friendly bathroom designs that tick all<br />

the boxes (page 22) to easy ways to bring the cute factor to<br />

kids’ bedrooms (page 28), and our guide to creating a library<br />

wall that bookworms of all ages will adore (page 54) – our<br />

tip-packed features have you covered. One family that has<br />

it sussed is the Viel clan, who are making the most of their<br />

Palm Jumeirah address with lots of quality time outdoors<br />

– turn to page 48 for a sneak peek at their stunning abode.<br />

Feeling inspired? On page 62 you’ll find six fabulous family<br />

homes on the market that offer plenty of room to grow.<br />

Happy nesting!<br />
