No Affordable Feet for You
by Nathan Walpow
We’re a little (read: more than a little) tardy with this, but there was an excellent piece on the GOOD Magazine blogs a few weeks ago. I’m of mixed mind about GOOD: they’ve got a lot of, uh, good info in there, but they’re a little too groovy for me. The online version is more palatable, though, a result of the great equalizer that is the Innernets, which clips off some of the uniqueness of everything, for better or worse. (Note: Are you sick yet of people using malaprops for the word Internet, as some kind of reverse homage to the country’s immediate past president? All together now: NO!)
Anyway, the piece is by Dan Maginn, a Kansas City architect, and it’s about ... well, the author says it better than I can:
We want so bad to believe that we can have it all—a cool design with lots of space, for not a lot of money. But we can’t have it all.
You can read the whole thing here; it’s the first of a four-part series.
