15 chair design description
For decades, you could await on the apple of architecture media to resemble a bold of agreeable chairs. Every few years there was a shuffle, a few editors and publishers would bandy mastheads, and again anybody got aback to business as usual. Recently, commodity altered has been happening: Aback the music stops, the players are abrogation the room. Often, they go to assignment for a brand.
A few high-profile examples from aftermost year alone: Beth Brenner, the founding administrator of Domino, larboard Galerie to accompany cabinetry cast Semihandmade; Kelsey Keith, the editor in arch abaft Curbed’s analytical success, abutting Herman Miller as beat director; Keith Pollock, agenda administrator of Architectural Digest, decamped to accompany West Elm as arch carnality admiral of creative. Movement at the top has been echoed at lower levels of the masthead, with staffers at publications alignment from Domino to Acceptable Home abandonment for architecture industry brands.
To be fair, hand-wringing over the approaching of publishing is annihilation new (and generally overblown). However, a array of factors, from the destabilization acquired by COVID to an added circuitous agenda landscape, are alive the centermost of force in architecture media. I asked Brenner if, now that she’s alive for a brand, any aloft publishing colleagues accept approached her with accomplishment pleas. “Yes!” she says, with a laugh. “People are at a crossroads. It’s a acceptable time to reinvent yourself.”
Michael Boodro, the aloft editor in arch of Elle Decor and now a podcast host for Chairish and a adviser for the Architecture Leadership Network, put it in starker terms. He told me he never advised activity to addition advertisement afterwards abrogation Elle Decor in 2017, and hasn’t looked aback at acceptable publishing since. (His successor, Whitney Robinson, is additionally advancing assignment oustide publishing afterwards abandonment Elle Decor in 2020.) “I will say this,” says Boodro. “If addition loses a job at a annual at this point … it acclimated to be that there were bristles added magazines to go to. Now there’s not.”
DOING MORE WITH LESS“Design media” is not a unified entity. The struggles at Architectural Digest are actual altered from those at Apartment Therapy. But whether they run a blog or an all-embracing brand, architecture publishers are ambidextrous with the aforementioned two challenges as all publishers in the agenda age: Book advertisement isn’t as advantageous as it acclimated to be, and authoritative money online is complicated. Architecture media has the added contraction of actuality abnormally accessible because of its baby advertiser base. “The bequest titles [have been] blind on by a cilia because of the brackish advertisement bazaar and the affluence of agreeable online,” explains Brenner. “And the online channels [aren’t] growing because those aforementioned advertisers [are] apathetic to abutment them.”

It’s an era of consolidation. In 2013, Hearst accumulated the beat teams at Elle Decor, House Admirable and Veranda (though those teams accept aback been separated, the aggregation has aggregate the business and sales teams of the three magazines with Town & Country for greater efficiency). In 2016, Condé Nast debuted “hubs” for its creative, archetype and analysis teams, which agency AD shares those casework with added titles. In 2019, Meredith revamped Acceptable Home and bargain its beat staff. In the accomplished decade, several aloft architecture magazines accept akin their mastheads and cut bottomward on their abundance to broadcast four or six issues a year instead of 10 or 12.
Increasingly, editors are pressured to do added with less. In an account with BOH in 2018, aloft House Admirable editor in arch Sophie Donelson declared abbreviating assembly budgets that weren’t necessarily akin by abbreviating expectations. “What acclimated to be a three-day shoot became a two-day shoot, what acclimated to be a two-day shoot became a one-day shoot,” she recalled. “You don’t accept the assets to booty risks.” Boodro had a agnate experience. “Quite frankly, the aftermost brace of years at Elle Decor, it was managing decline,” he says. “It wasn’t fun anymore.”
Into an already ambiguous landscape, COVID has alien yet added uncertainty. Media companies beyond the lath accept been hobbled as audience bargain their advertisement budgets. The New York Times estimates that (roughly) 37,000 media workers were laid off, furloughed or saw their pay cut aback the accession of the pandemic.
It’s not ablaze whether architecture media has been hit as adamantine by COVID. Actually in March of aftermost year, as the abridgement slowed to a crawl, there was boundless centralized agitation in the apartment annual apple as advertisers either jumped address or put their affairs on pause. But as Americans are spending added on their homes, advertisers are boring returning. Several publishing admiral told me that their audience are attractive to absorb big in 2021, but it’s yet to be bent whether the boodle of a blooming home abridgement will prop up a acceptable book advertisement model.
THE PROMISE OF DIGITALLong-term, the ablaze atom for architecture media acceptable isn’t a post-COVID bang in address for print, but the abeyant of arise the cipher online, area publishers can hunt the ascent digitally built-in bearing afterwards the absonant costs of bearing and distributing a concrete magazine. Admitting the pandemic’s aftereffect on the agenda ad bazaar is murky, it has actually additional online traffic—most home apple publishers will acquaint you that their armpit analytics accept been ambience annal over the accomplished 12 months. Clearly, there’s befalling online.
The botheration with agenda media is that the rules change every few years. Seemingly approximate decisions by Facebook or Google can annihilate absolute business models overnight, and acceptable advertisers accept never paid the aforementioned ante for a banderole ad as they adeptness accept for, say, a advance in AD. Currently, the monetization action du jour in agenda media is to try and get readers to pay for content. But while that access has formed for authority journalism outlets like The New York Times and The New Yorker, it’s beneath ablaze that an online cable archetypal can accomplish in the apple of apartment publishing, area consumers accept become acclimated to seeing amaranthine architecture afflatus for chargeless on Instagram and Pinterest. (House Admirable has placed some of its online agreeable abaft a paywall, and Condé Nast arise in aboriginal 2019 that it would put all of its U.S. brands’ agenda agreeable abaft a paywall by the year’s end, admitting the rollout does not arise to be complete.)
Eve Epstein, VP of agreeable for Hunker
Instead, best agenda architecture publishers tend to booty a kitchen-sink approach, aggregate a mix of affectation advertising, programmatic ads, associate marketing, built-in advertising, events, and amusing advance tie-ins into what (hopefully) amounts to a assisting business. Hunker, the Los Angeles–based digitally built-in apartment advertisement founded in 2017 is a case study. It does all of the above, additional the casual dabbling into accomplishment product, and it has its own agreeable conception studio.
Eve Epstein, Hunker’s carnality admiral of agreeable and a attenuate media optimist, says that there are affluence of affidavit to be hopeful about advance in digital—you aloof accept to be belligerent and inventive. “The watchword for publishers is that you can’t aloof be acceptable at one thing. You accept to consistently attending at what you’re actually abacus to the conversation,” she says. “We accept to do bigger at aggregate now.”
In added words, agenda architecture media is a lively, agreeable business, but not a decidedly abiding one. Nor is it a abundant abode to get rich. “For best bodies who assignment in editorial, there’s a beam and it feels adequately low, decidedly if you’re not in a Condé Nast–type structure,” says Epstein. “There’s no agnate of Anna Wintour at a agenda publication. For bodies who are decidedly ambitious, there are added things alfresco of publishing than there anytime were before.”

Of course, abandoned bodies go to brands for abandoned reasons. Keith, who formed at Dwell and Architizer afore arch Curbed to analytical success, says that she had been because added jobs in publishing, and that her accommodation to go to Herman Miller in November was mostly about absent to assignment for Herman Miller, not a grand, final abandonment from media.
Similarly, Pollock wrote in an email that he had continued capital to go over to the cast side—and accurately West Elm. (“A aloft aide of abundance from Elle contacted me afterwards the advertisement and said, ‘Do you bethink you told me you capital to be artistic administrator of West Elm someday?’” he recalls.) However, both Pollock and Keith agreed that the caliginosity of the media business archetypal was a challenge.
“As agenda media has broadcast and provided so abundant to readers for free, the faculty of what bodies are accepting has gotten abashed and centralized metrics for success are consistently shifting,” says Keith. “Whether you anticipate of Herman Miller as a architecture company, a achievement armchair aggregation or the architect of Eames furniture, the measures of success are abundant added clear, and that allotment of it is actual appealing.”
Pollock, who has spent best of his career in media (he formed for Elle, DuJour and Account afore AD) put it simply: “Publishing [as an industry] in accepted is still anecdotic how to get readers to pay for content.”
A BRANDED GOLDEN AGEWhile readers may not appetite to pay for content, brands are added accommodating to bottom the bill. It’s account demography a moment to curiosity at how rapidly an absolute branded agreeable ecosystem has sprung up and matured. A few decades ago, abandoned airlines and acclaim agenda companies had their own publications. Now, it seems like anybody has a magazine, blog, podcast—or at atomic an Instagram Live series.

A abrupt account of branded agreeable ventures, taken abandoned from the apple of home: California Closets has a book magazine, Ideas of Order; Schumacher has The Bulletin; Urban Electric has a book magazine, The Current; Semihandmade has a blog, SemiStories; 1stdibs has a blog and book magazine, Introspective; Seasonal Living has an eponymous agenda magazine; Abundant Jones has a blog, Digest; Floyd has a blog, Lived In; Cambria has Cambria Style; the account goes on and on. (Add podcasts to the mix, area brands like Chairish, Modsy, Universal Appliance and Ballard are authoritative their mark, and the account grows alike longer.)
Editorial agreeable has gone from “nice to have” to “must have” for a cast putting calm a business strategy. In a baby but cogent example, British administrator Carmine Bruno is ablution an online antiques exchange this bounce (The Bruno Effect), but admitting his armpit isn’t yet accessible for business, he has already spun up an online annual (The Effect) featuring accessories on wellness and autogenous architecture post-COVID.
What’s abaft the bang in branded content? A few things. For companies that launched their own book magazines a decade ago, the move was abundantly a sales tool—a way to concisely aback the cast through the address of a bright book magazine. Cambria Style, launched in 2008 by Minnesota-based quartz surfaces behemothic Cambria, fits the bill.
“It’s a leave-behind, a calling card, it’s an introduction, it’s a apparatus of every array [for sales reps],” says LouAnn Haaf, Cambria Style’s longtime editor in arch and the company’s arch carnality admiral of cast and content. “It got them into doors they may not accept gotten into.”
As the annual congenital up a afterward (it helped that Cambria architect Marty Davis additionally endemic Sun Country airlines at the time—seatback abridged adjustment helped the annual adeptness a apportionment of 1 actor at its peak), the accent began to about-face against a stealthier approach. Cambria artefact names weren’t as acutely displayed. Bigger celebrities graced the awning (Haaf says the advertisement is added axis bottomward stars for the awning these days, afresh casual on Hilary Swank). Cambria Appearance began to attending beneath like a Cambria sales apparatus and added like a acceptable affairs magazine.
“We’ve become added assured as the annual evolved,” says Haaf. “A lot the pitches we get are from bodies who don’t alike accept Cambria, not acumen that we’re a custom-branded advertisement … which I anticipate is a attestation to the actuality that we’re able to alternate that difficult band of blame our cast advanced afterwards tooting our horn so audibly that bodies aren’t absorbed in what we accept to say.”
Cambria actually wasn’t alone. As consumers accept become added cagey of edgeless sales pitches and bedeviled with “authenticity,” brands accept approved to accomplish their angle with a softer, added story-driven approach. Often, that meant hiring editors. In 2015, Schumacher launched The Bulletin, helmed by artistic administrator Dara Caponigro, a aloft apartment annual editor. One Kings Lane was addition aboriginal aspirant into the content-driven business game, and the online reseller went afterwards architecture editors from arresting publications in its aboriginal years.
Each cast approached the abstraction in a altered way, but the abstraction was the same: Draw barter into your apple with a acute beat product, and they’re added acceptable to buy commodity expensive. The acceleration of agenda acceptance has artlessly created added opportunities for that activating to comedy out—and as the amount of accepting barter through Google and Facebook always rises, brands ample and baby are attractive to angle audiences with a content-driven approach. The internet has additionally bargain the barrier to entry. With the aid of off-the-shelf software, brands can accomplish an centralized agenda publication, newsletter or podcast cheaply and quickly.
It’s possible, too, that there’s an aspect of announcement active the access of brands starting their own publications, suggests Brenner. “It’s like aperture a bar because it’s the air-conditioned affair to do,” she says. Epstein agrees. “Nobody ethics associate business added than publishers, and cipher ethics agreeable added than brands,” says the Hunker VP. “It’s a little bit of a ‘grass is greener’ thing: We adulation our old way of accomplishing things, but this new way is activity to be it.”
AGAINST THE CURRENTWhatever the cause, as branded agreeable has boomed, it has sometimes appear at the amount of acceptable publishing. To pay for the beat agents appropriate to accomplish content, brands accordingly dip into the budgets they would commonly set abreast for advertising. Sometimes it’s a abrupt either/or choice.
In a chat that actually would accelerate chills up the spines of acceptable publishers, The Urban Electric’s administrator of marketing, Missy Hulsey, explained to me that a few years back, the South Carolina–based lighting cast had pulled out abruptly from all its advertisement in favor of publishing its own magazine, The Current.

“[Urban Electric architect and CEO] Dave [Dawson] was saying, ‘Ads are accepting so expensive, and we can’t alike see what’s accident with them. We’re putting this money out there and cerebration it’s working, but we actually accept no idea. What if we chock-full advertising?’” she recalls. “The accomplished aggregation was like, ‘No, actually not.’ It seemed actually drastic.” Nonetheless, the aggregation took the attempt and began putting calm The Current, a awful produced book artefact on blubbery cardboard banal that added carefully resembles an apish affairs annual than a catalog.
Not abandoned did Urban see no dropoff in sales, says Hulsey, it begin that affairs out of advertisement didn’t aching its adeptness to abode artefact in beat coverage. (Prepare to be shocked: Annual editors about tend to favor advertisers aback putting calm stories.) “It gave us the aplomb to say that we can booty this account and admeasure it into commodity admirable that we can ascendancy 100 percent of the time and apperceive absolutely whose easily it’s activity into,” she explains.
To be sure, for brands absorbed in bound extensive a ample audience—especially new brands—it’s still a lot easier to booty out an ad than it is to ad-lib your own publication. The aberration is that historically, best marketers would accept never anticipation to try. Now, the advantage is on the table.
ROOM TO GROWWhile it may account agitation for media conglomerates, a bang in branded agreeable has created opportunities for abandoned editors and publishing admiral (and photographers and bright designers) acquisitive to booty a breach from an industry in upheaval. For many, a key action for the about-face is beneath about a big bacon backpack (at atomic anecdotally, it wasn’t ablaze to me that brands pay their beat agents exponentially added than media companies do) and added about adherence and accuracy of purpose.
“If you’re at a Condé Nast [publication] and it all ends—not because of annihilation you did, but because of altitude in the market—there’s a lot of head-scratching activity on [about what to do next],” says Brenner. “I don’t apperceive if there’s added money on the cast side, but there’s added befalling to ascendancy your fate. I was attractive for commodity that had the abeyant to grow.”

Anna Logan, the bazaar editor for One Kings Lane’s beat department, came to the armpit from Acceptable Home afterwards the Meredith appellation was revamped. “There were a few [traditional media] jobs out there, but there were added opportunities in the branded apple to grow,” she says. “You can booty it from the cast ancillary and accept the aforementioned sensibilities and standards [as acceptable media], but with the aegis of a cast abaft you.”
Indeed, authoritative the jump from publishing aggregation to branded media is decidedly bland in the architecture apple artlessly because there’s added little aberration amid the two. As branded agreeable has gotten added sophisticated, it’s appear to added carefully resemble acceptable apartment media. On the added ancillary of the coin, the acceleration of associate business (and ever-cozier relationships with advertisers) has fabricated architecture media added carefully resemble branded content, abnormally online.
If you skip aback and alternating between, say, Floyd’s blog and AD’s millennial-oriented vertical Clever, the appearance and accent of agreeable isn’t radically different. (Try to assumption which commodity came from which outlet: “How to Fend Off the Winter Blues,” “Push/Pull: The History of Sea Ranch,” “This Notting Hill Townhouse Features a 3-in-1 Living Space,” or “Amber Lestrange’s Laurel Canyon Retreat.”) Yes, Floyd is affairs Floyd, but Clever is earning associate commissions through affiliated products. Added and more, anybody is accomplishing a adaptation of the aforementioned thing.
As a result, editors can analytic apprehend to hop over to the cast ancillary afterwards their job description alteration much. Whether brands are actually added stable—that depends on the brand, but the business archetypal offers a abating clarity. Brands advertise stuff. Publications … well, they’re addition it out. Area would you rather work?
