Domino, Cookie, Gourmet are gone – but Lonny Magazine is Here!

Lonny Magazine

Times are changing.

The news of Condé Nast shutting down magazines Gourmet, Cookie, Modern Bride, and Elegant Bride came as a shock to many, even though news of magazines dying isn’t any new news, also several other Condé Nast magazines like Men’s Vogue, Domino and Portfolio were shut down earlier this year.

The rate as new blogs and online magazines, big and small, pop up on weekly basis and how people search for information online is an indication of many more magazines dying in the next decade. I am sad to see old friends go, and I still miss one of my favorite interior design and decorating magazines, Domino, but at the same time – I like to get my info online, also for ecological reasons!

While change sometimes hurts, it makes us think outside the box and get creative. One new way is to bring the traditional media online in a traditional way – as an online magazine. Not as a blog, not as a resourceful website, but as a magazine-looking platform that has the same feel like real magazine.

Welcome Lonny Magazine.

I clicked on Lonny Magazine, and found 195 pages of goodness. Interior design magazine that looks just like me, easy decorating ideas, pictures from real homes, and all out there for us to read. I felt like I had found a secret treasure.

Thank you for posting about Lonny magazine. I have been heartbroken ever since Domino closed its doors and have been searching for an alternative. Lonny rocks.
