A plea for plans - Letters: keeping those cards, letters, and e-mails coming - Letter to the Editor
Residential Architect, Jan-Feb, 2003 by Mark T. Wellen
I am an admirer of your magazine and appreciate a publisher dedicating all its efforts to residential architecture. We always look forward to the annual design awards issue (our firm was represented in the [May] 2000 issue). With all the beautiful layouts and well-written pieces you produce, there is one significant element missing: Plans! Architects love ... need ... just gotta have floor plans (and, when possible, site plans) along with photographs to adequately explain the design architects' intent. Please start adding them to the features.

The editor replies: Dear Mr. Wellen: Ask and you shall receive! You may already have noticed many more floor plans and site plans on our pages (our November-December 2002 "Big House Clinic" story, shown below, is full of them). And, barring anything unforeseen, you'll find them in our annual Residential Architect Design Awards issue in May 2003.
