Veranda The Art of Outdoor Living

Lisa Newsom founded Veranda in 1987 as a showcase for exceptional design, and from the first issue it distinguished itself with lush visual presentations, as well as substance behind the beauty. Respected by the design community, applauded by a discerning readership, and honored with numerous awards, Lisa, who began her storied career as cofounder of Southern Accents in 1977, has always focused on the best. Lisa divides her time between Atlanta, GA and Cashiers, NC.

 

Veranda is a forum for the very best in living well.

The audience for Veranda Retreats mirrors that of the magazine: half-a-million affluent readers who are on a quest for the best. The magazine is unparalleled in its commitment to luxury living and delivering the finest in home decoration, style, jewelry, travel, culture, and more.
