Architecture NewsEditorial Entrata libera. When I began going to Milan’s Salone del Mobile, the city’s annual design extravaganza, some 25 years ago, you’d find that saying posted outside most showrooms and exhibitions.

Architecture NewsEditorial Putting together RECORD’s annual Interiors issue often feels like taking a break from “real” architecture. After all, restaurants, galleries, and office spaces are frequently short-lived and lack the full impact of buildings—those complex and sturdy compositions of steel and glass, concrete and brick, timber and stone.

As we were preparing to ship this issue to the printer in early January, the city of Los Angeles erupted in flames. At press time, we could only be sure of the immense devastation, with new blazes igniting and no fully adequate infrastructure for containment.
