Don't purchase a subscription to this magazine if you would like to recieve the issues in this century. I purchased a subscription in July 2003. It is now Jan 2004 and I haven't recieved an issue yet.
 Beautiful classic modern design. But not cheap. June 8, 2003

Each issue carefully covers the latest in interior design, focusing on modern, form follows function style. Not a how-to publicaton. Not trendy. Great photos of stunning architecture and design.

I just tried to resubscribe to Metopolitan Home.
I was a subscriber for many years while living in the US, taking many "can't live without" issues with me when I moved to Australia 12 years ago. I found it very inspiring and am sorry to have just found out I cannot be a subcriber unless I live in the US.
Bit too difficult to move back right this moment.
I couldn't wait for my subscription to end! April 29, 2003

I made the mistake of subscribing to this magazine, and couldn't wait for my subscription to run out! If viewing the same minimalist designs over and over every month is your cup of tea, this just might be the mag for you, but I found the articles and pictorials to be lacking in imagination, warmth, and screaming with redundancy. Every once and awhile I was surprised to find an article or feature that had some originality and expression, but unfortunately, this was more often the exception than the rule.
Good bathtime reading. November 5, 2002

Nothing challenging here. Rather than offering interesting architectural and design fare, MH is a decorating magazine full of expensive items (most of the most interesting ones are in advertisements, of which this magazine is at least 50%) that most people cannot afford. The articles are well-written in a good, direct style that doesn't attempt to impress with name-dropping ("Architectural Digest") or insist that design is a political action committee ("Dwell"). My biggest gripe is that the article headings promise much, but the delivery is scanty. Rather than give the reader something to really ponder (say, a design problem or an unexpected renovation snafu and its respective solution), the articles, despite their admirably simple, terse style, ultimately talk down to the reader. I would advise going to the supermarket and paging through MH before subscribing.
I would really like to subscribe to a magazine that discusses great home design and features truly innovative approaches in a modern style devoid of the minimalist, warehouse affectation that has become so tired, yet is still the coin of the realm. P.S. MH, please ditch the recipes - I have that subscription already.
