INSIDE: house & garden's demise
HARRY: Wow. I was shocked to read that House & Garden in the US had folded...and so suddenly. December is their last issue. According to the editor's letter they had already finished January and it was guest edited by Murray Moss. It would be very interesting to hear the real story there. One of my favourite bloggers, Grace at design*sponge was part of the H&G team so she is now without that gig. From her blog it sounds like they had no idea the end was near. My industry contacts here say the magazine was getting very thin. But my taste of it was through their website which I thought was excellent - it had a great depth of content and was smartly edited and designed. Not too busy, not too spare. It's a shame to see it go. I wonder what will happen to their vintage photo sweepstakes giveaway (see the pic above)?

HARRY: Had one of those days where you feel like a super woman. Did the kids, did the house, did my work, did food shopping. Did the lot... and now I am TIRED. But inspired. I met with the new editor of Monument magazine today, Peter Salhani. Very enthusiastic. I'm going to cover some residential stuff for them and maybe do the books page. Fun to be in the thick of it again. He gave me Davina Jackson's new book... 'Emerging Talents in Australian Architecture'. Looks lush. Spectacular photography by Melbourne woman Shannon McGrath. The cover shot for the book of a Mark Cashman project is pictured above. The book sits here on my desk by my glass of wine waiting to be opened. Davina also wrote, with her architect husband, Australian Architecture Now - a great survey of what is happening down under. I also got a very cool mag today from Remo Giuffre, the powerhouse behind Remo. The magazine is called 'Dumbo feather, pass it on' and is just an exquisite piece of design. God only knows how they keep themselves going - there's next to no ads. But for the reader it is pure bliss. You can now get it at Barnes and Noble (but not online) ... definitely check it out. I've pasted the cover of the current issue below.
