Milwaukee Home and Fine Living reported on philosophies and trends that are driving the residential design movements in Greater Milwaukee. This might have included a home that exemplifies a particular decorating or architectural style, or a profile of a local shop owner, artisan or designer. To be considered, all products, homes, gardens, experts and artisans, etc., featured in the magazine must have had a local connection or be available locally.

Milwaukee Home and Fine Living published a free monthly e-newsletter, featuring a sneak peek of the upcoming issue, editors' picks of local home and fine living events, recipes from some of the area's restaurants, and performing arts previews.
