It was an opulently produced periodical which featured mainly articles on interior design.  It occasionally included toy cut outs and other geegaws, and always included magnificent photography in its articles and advertisements.  Many (perhaps most) of the interiors featured focus on nontraditional, exceptional, and unusual environments.  Contributors in these issues include Gilbert & George, Fulvio Ferrari, Garouste & Bonetti, Nan Goldin, and numerous other prominent writers and artists.
