The Magazine (www.themagazine.info) provides the best of modern furniture and design. Their products range from mid-century design classics to the latest European pieces. The Magazine does not sell

knock-offs. These are the Real Things. Each of its pieces is either produced by the original designer or to the specifications of the original designer.

If you are looking for names such as Eames, Noguchi, Herman Miller, Saarinen, LeCorbusier or Aalto, look at The Magazine. Want newer names such as Artifort, Leolux, Alessi or Cappelini? Head over to The Magazine.  They have sleek, classic pieces and a goofy Bubble Chair that will make your teenagers suspect you may not (possibly) be such a loser, after all. The site is nicely organized by type of product (console tables, dining chairs, sofas and so forth) with special links to their featured designers.

The Magazine has other worthy features. Their Gift Ideas section features suggestions by price - because, seriously now, that is important to almost all of us. Brian Ogan, co-founder of The Magazine, authors a Design Tips section. Right now, the Tips address how to maximize

a small space. Brian Ogan also provides interior design services. You can reach him through the site. For our high rollers, we'll mention that The Magazine provides discounts for orders over $10,000. Be careful in your choices, though. Returns are strongly discouraged. Check out the FAQs so that you know what you are getting yourself into.

If the new millennium finds you wanting to pare down, streamline and smooth out your space, The Magazine may be just what you are looking for.

Your Sleekly-Lined Girlfriends,
