Reed Business Information subsidiary The Ashley Group has announced plans to launch quarterly editions of Luxury Homes magazine in four U.S. regions later this year. The new editions arrive on the heels of the introduction of The Best of the Best of Luxury Homes, which showcases Design Excellence Award Show winners. The four featured regions will be the Northeast, Southeast, Midwest and Southwest.

In a press release, Ashley Group executive vice president and general manager Greg Samios said the new titles will highlight high-end homes that convey the flavor and distinctiveness of their regions. "Luxury Homes will be a rich, glossy and engaging magazine that will give readers ideas and inspiration on how to turn their house into the home of their dreams," he said in the release. The Ashley Group also publishes The Home Book, an annual sourcebook for building, decorating, furnishing, and landscaping luxury homes, and The Design Index, a companion directory of building and design professionals.
