Question: The magazine of today about The House Of Tomorrow

Know of any magazines, periodicals, or newsletters dealing with Mid-Century Modernism, particularly home furnishings and interior design?

I've only been able to find one regular magazine out there -- "Atomic Ranch", published quarterly. But there must be others...right? I mean, the Arts and Crafts movement has at least three bimonthly-or-more magazines devoted to it ("Style 1900", "American Bungalow", etc.), so I'm surprised that there seems to be so little out there for the more modern stuff.

There is a lot of overlap with midcentury stuff in Dwell.

Dwell. (Full disclosure: I write for them.) If you want straight-up mid-century info, try Modernism magazine, if it's still around. Also tons and tons (literally) of books on the subject out there, by the likes of Phaidon and Taschen.

turducken beat me to it with the rec for Modernism magazine. PrairieMod is a blog that I enjoy which frequently does some spectacular work on digging up mid-century modern resources.

You might also check on blogs like The Mid-Century Modernist and Mid-Century Modern Interiors, which mention publications when they're featured.
