FEATURED THIS MONTH
Following our special April 2011 issue, we continue to celebrate our
30th year at Metropolismag.com. Go there to see weekly postings of
video interviews with (pictured clockwise from top left) Paula Scher,
Craig Dykers, Shashi Caan, and John Cary, as well as Robin Guenther,
Michael Murphy, and David Rockwell. Hear what they have to say
about the state of design today and the role Metropolis plays in covering it. Also peruse 30 influential covers, including (clockwise from
left): “Access,” an in-depth look at universal design in November 1992;
Scher’s 1999 Metropolis redesign; the first-ever issue, in July 1981;
and our “Architects Pollute” exposé in October 2003.

welfare learning requirements? Read Metropolis
articles, test your knowledge, and rack up your

BLOG
The newest title from Metropolis Books,
Architects’ Sketchbooks, arrives in bookstores
this month. On our blog, Will Jones, the book’s
editor, explains the durability of the eye-hand-mind connection at a time when most of us are
fixated on the simple movements of mouse-clicking and pad-swiping.
