Ode to Domino

Picture 37

Lately I have been mourning Domino more than ever.  I thought I was over it, but I suppose I still haven’t come to grips with our loss.  Do you ever feel the same way?  I was thinking yesterday about how excited I got whenever a new issue arrived in the mail—how all the girls at work would be gushing over so-and-so on the cover and the paint color on the wall on page 123.  It felt like us—our generation building and creating our dream homes (often apartments!) one stylish accessory at a time.  I miss the simplicity of it, the do-it-yourself approach, the bold colors and the celebration of past and present interior tastemakers.  What about you?  Do you have an all time favorite Domino issue?  A favorite cover girl?  Mine may be Jenna Lyons.  That shot (top left corner above) was stunning in all its coral and persimmon glory…  Alright, I’ll stop bemoaning what has been and move on with my life.  Thank god for Lonny.
