Bauer Media has announced the expansion of its women’s lifestyle portfolio with the launch of Landscape magazine.
Bauer said the bi-monthly mag (six times a year) will create a new ‘seasonal category’with content that ‘takes inspiration from UK’s growing seasons”.
The launch is being supported by a media partnership with The Times newspaper, with 32-page sampler of Landscape magazine being distributed in the paper on Saturday 14 April.
Editorial will be focused on ‘the joy of the garden, simple seasonal kitchen food, traditional British crafts and the wonder of nature and the countryside”, and the magazine describes itself as a ‘haven from the pressures of modern living”.
