Goodbye to Domino Magazine…

March 2009, the final issue of Domino Magazine

I just found out the saddest news…. this month’s issue of Domino magazine is the last one they’ll publish.  :(

I’ve always loved Domino magazine.  To me they held a unique position in the design magazine category.  They have always catered to what I’ve come to think of as Gen X’ers style… that mix-mosh of modern, traditional, retro, and contemporary with a little “where the heck did that come from?” whimsy thrown in.  You know, the kinds of things you’d find if you shopped for furniture and accessories at Urban Outfitters.

They weren’t always the most budget friendly (not for lack of trying, of course!  I mean really, they did have to sell ad space after all and people who sell on craigslist aren’t generally inclined to purchase big spreads in glossy magazines!), but everything they featured was normally so lovely and often so inspirational, that it didn’t matter that it wasn’t within my price range.

And they’ve often managed to feature some of my favorite bloggers, like Grace over at Design*Sponge, as well as interesting new artists and designers that I would never have found otherwise.

Sigh.

Goodbye Domino magazine!  You will definitely be missed…

I loved Domino mag! I wonder when they were going to let their subscribers know? I believe I had several more issues left on my subscription, so I feel a little gipped… Oh well. It was good while it lasted.
