Architectural Digest - One Fantastic Magazine November 28, 2008 Kathleen M. Price (Tulsa) Architectural Digest is fantastic. I look forward to receiving it each month to peruse all the beautiful estates, homes, gardens, furniture, art, history, and designs presented that are available not only in all areas of the United States, but also around the globe.
Once about what you could have, but no longer... November 7, 2008 Spearhead Soldier Once upon a time, what you saw in AD was what you might one day be able to do yourself. It was about tasteful, even higher end, but it was obtainable. Now it's about the houses and interiors that even the more successful of us out there will never be able to attain. Please quit touring the houses of the celebrities, the rich and famous, and instead go back to the days of those who were once like the rest of us. In short, go back to when the stuff we saw in AD gave us ideas for our own dream houses. Now you are the tasteful "home" equivalent of People Magazine...
Present October 6, 2008 Victoria Elizondo br / br /Thank you for a great magazine. This subscription is for my niece that is studying interior and architectural design. br / br /It is her 22nd birthday and she is very but very happy. br / br /Thank you
Magazine Incorrectly named. June 20, 2008 C. Gallardo (Ecuador) It should be called "Digest for Decorators with Unlimited Budgets." Once a year there is an "architecture" issue, and there might be one article in other issues with architecture as the subject. If you really want something about architecture, you cannot go wrong with Architectural RECORD.
BUYER BEWARE - Gift Subscriptions February 6, 2008 Ray (New Jersey) 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
I ordered this magazine as a gift for someone, and when the first issue arrived, it came to my house (the billing address) instead of the gift recipient's address. When I called Architectural Digest to have the delivery address changed, they told me that they will not process Amazon orders as gift subscriptions and, in order to have the delivery name and address changed, they would have to suspend the subscription and create a new gift order that would result in issues being delayed or left out. br / br /I have no complaints about the publication, and I have no complaints about Amazon's order processing in general, but I caution you not to purchase this magazine as a gift without verifying that the intended recipient will actually receive the magazines.
