As someone who's spent her life editing and publishing design and interiors magazines, it saddens me to hear the news of Metropolitan Home magazine's closure. The 26 year old magazine has always stood out as one of the only decent modern interior design magazines to come out of the US. When I worked in New York we would pour over the pages of each new issue, utterly envious of the homes and apartments they had procured and their exquisite and unique styling. I am certainly glad that I've kept hold of my favourite issues.
