Executive Editor, Homes & Gardens

Kaitlin Madden Armon is a writer and editor who has covered homes and interiors for more than 10 years. She started her career as a local lifestyle editor with Modern Luxury's Michigan Avenue magazine in Chicago. There, she wrote about fashion, food, arts, and notable Chicagoans. After a move to Boston, she took a role as the managing and online editor at New England Home, where she discovered a love of all things interior design. She's focused her career around interiors ever since. She's held positions as an editor at Wayfair and Real Homes, and has written for publications and brands like Architectural Digest, Martha Stewart Living, 1st Dibs, Vanity Fair, Refinery29, Modern Luxury Interiors, Chicago Magazine, Maya Romanoff, The Design Network, Decorist, Amazon, Loom Decor, and lots more. She is also the co-founder of the interior design startup, The Finish, which offers home decorating services on-demand.


When she's not writing about how to decorate, she's putting her own advice into practice, and likes to spend her free time rearranging furniture, painting walls, and scouring local flea markets and antique stores for her next find. 


She graduated from Northeastern University with a degree in journalism and currently lives in Connecticut with her husband, three young children, and a black lab.
