Schöner Wohnen (stylized in all caps; German: Better Dwelling) is a German language interior design magazine which was launched in 1960 by Gruner + Jahr.
Schöner Wohnen was established in 1960 by the Hamburg-based publishing company Gruner + Jahr.[1] Its founding editor-in-chief was Josef Kremerkothen. The magazine enjoyed high levels of readership after its start. It has published photographs of the latest trends in furniture design, color palettes and room arrangements.[2] Later its coverage was expanded to feature articles about architecture, lifestyle, gardening and travel.[3] The magazine is the first German publication which employed the term design classic in 1974.[4]
