This Fall we will continue our weekly News and Feature updates, with daily headlines from around the world, and our monthly “The Camera” and "The Architect’s Studio” online exhibitions.
Our section “The Bookcase” will grow and before the end of the year we will be adding “Building Product” information to our features.
Our new Building Product Editor, Malene Anthon, will also be in charge of selecting and updating our Links.... we need to!
