I don't think a design blog can replace that paper version. Wouldn't a quarterly issue be less expensive to produce? I have been looking for a home/design magazine to replace it and I just have not found anything close. Oh and I had payed for several years I was that fond of the magazine! Think about it quarterly.... I need a new sofa and chairs for my table, here I am just waiting to be inspired and advertised to! I miss my Domino magazine!

It is not only shelter magazines, but ALL magazines that are feeling this. Surpriseingly Martha Stewart is going gangbusters! It is also the newspapers. Anyone who depends on advertising is having a very scary time.<br/><br/>As for moving Domino to a less expensive place...hmmm. For me, part of what made Domino so good was the fact that it had access to alot of young people with style, mostly on both coasts(Cal and NY metro area). It is just that these areas have a high concentration of a certain kind of person, involved in certain kinds of careers. I wonder if you would produce the same product, if you didn't have such a big pool to draw from.

Live and publish from a cheaper market and the cost would be lower. Those who went out for the advertisers failed to look beyond the norm, look at the those who we would turn to for items or inspiration. Just like the mass advertising found in Southern Living, focus on the cities or smaller dealers who would want the publicity, not as costly but enough to keep it going.<br/>I can't keep up with all those paid subscriptions that have stopped production,I'm sure I'm paid up until 2015!
