MAISON MAGAZINE August 2014 Luxury, Property and Lifestyle | Page 2

LETTER FROM THE EDITOR Welcome to the latest edition of Barry Plant’s Maison magazine, dedicated to showcasing some of the spectacular prestige properties currently for sale in Melbourne. The city doesn’t lack for markets - from fresh produce to imported delicacies, rare books and vintage fashions, you can find almost anything as you trawl through the weekend stalls. We’ve rounded up a few of Melbourne’s best - most are undercover and worth a visit even in the depths of winter. If you’re looking for ways to enhance space and light in your home, consider a mirror. Mirrors of all shapes and sizes can be used in a variety of clever ways to show your home in a whole new light. Finally, Open House Melbourne returns on the weekend of July 26 and 27, giving the public a chance to see the inner workings of some iconic Melbourne locations. If you haven’t been before, it’s a must see, particularly for those fascinated by the city’s ever changing culture, history and style. Happy reading!
