Ginevra Benedetti

Ginevra is the the Deputy Editor of Gardeningetc's sister title, Ideal Home magazine, working across both the magazine and website. She currently oversees the publication of the magazine each month, editing, writing and commissioning, from planning through to publication. Over the past two decades, she has worked for the majority of the UK’s interiors magazines and websites, both as staff and freelance. Just some of the other brands she has written for include Homes & Gardens, Livingetc, Country Homes & Interiors, Real Homes and Good Homes. She also regularly reviews smart tech, gadgets and barbecues for a handful of Ideal Home’s sister brands, too. 

She's written about pretty much every area of the home - both indoors and out. From shopping and decorating, appliances and home tech, wallpaper and fabric, kitchens and bathrooms, even extensions and conversions, she's covered them all.  

She currently lives in west London with her husband and son, and their Devon Rex cat, Zelda. And while her green fingers tend to mostly be all down to luck, she really does know the core bits and bobs that make a garden work brilliantly. From the right storage, the best furniture, the top gadgets… and she's more than happy to let everyone in on those must-have buys and investments to make their garden truly great!
