I'm in love with the new Domino! Probably because it's becoming the old Domino, just online. Their latest feature takes us back to January 2006, which, coincidentally, is when I received my very first copy. The cover story was Mary McDonald's L.A. office, a sophisticated little space tucked inside a 1-bedroom cottage. It was part DIY, part glamour, and, in short, a budding designer's dream office. You'll notice some nostalgic touches, as Mary was inspired by a 1950's Christian Dior dress salon. Read all about it over on Domino.

A file cabinet gets a facelift with photocopied wallpaper. I thought it was pretty ingenious at the time.
