Traditional Home + LONNY = TRAD home

What do you get when you mix a dash of Lonny with a pinch of Traditional Home? The answer is a ground-breaking digital magazine called trad home co-created by the editors of Lonny and Traditional Home. The new magazine's theme, “Young Traditional” was announced and celebrated last Tuesday evening at a dinner event for digital media editors and designers in New York City.

It was Traditional Home Publisher, Beth Brenner who approached Lonny Editor-in-Chief, Michelle Adams {both worked at Domino together} about her concept of the magazines collaborating. The project is referred to as the “love child” between the two magazines and will leverage the established Traditional Home brand while attracting Lonny's youthful, style-savvy readers.
