Funny, but only because it is true - An Open Letter to Dwell Magazine

Dear Dwell:

Love the magazine. As a favor, I have rewritten the Table of Contents of your July/August issue:

Cover        House with Horizontal Wood Slats
Page 43    House with Vertical Wood Slats
Page 52    House with Horizontal Wood Slats
Page 58    Ice Cream Makers
Page 66    Pavilion with Horizontal Wood Slats
Page 70    Philadelphia
Page 80    House with Horizontal Wood Slats
Page 88    House with Horizontal Wood Slats
Page 96    House with Vertical Wood Slats

I hope you find this useful.

Fondly,

Lol..!! I love it..!!

Eeek..! Gag me with a tree.. I hate wood. All I see is.. WOOD..!! I had (never more) a subscription with Dwell. I too wrote a few choice comments concerning.. woooood.. geez, it makes my mouth pucker to think of w@%d.

Where's the modern, Dwell.. as in cutting edge and logically driven architecture..??? How about foamed concrete, glass & steel.. anodized aluminum.. central atrium & courtyard homes.. homes like the Case study houses.. but using the very newest materials.. I wanna see 21st century, pushing hard towards 22nd century stuff..!!
