A shocking report today that, after 120 years, British architecture publications Architects’ Journal and Architectural Review will go out of print in the next 18 months surprised many in the architecture and publishing worlds.
One insider tells AN that, at least for Architectural Review, that is just a rumor: “the situation is messy, but AR will not cease in print for the foreseeable future, for example 12 to 18 months. It is by no means definite that it will go digital unless by popular demand of subscribers, which seems highly unlikely.” The fate of Architects’ Journal print editions remains to be seen.
