Thea Babington-Stitt
Thea has been working in homes magazines and websites ever since graduating from City University with a Masters in Magazine Journalism. At the moment she is a Content Editor on Ideal Home, but has also been News and Features at Editor at Homes & Gardens, LivingEtc and Country Homes & Interiors.
Thea has interests across every area of homes - from kitchens and colour schemes to technology and architecture. Over the past couple of years she has interviewed some of the most renowned names in interior design and is passionate about talking to people to discover new ideas, theories and ways of looking at design. Although she is yet to become a homeowner, Thea loves making her rental flat her own, and spends probably too much time idly designing her dream home.
