Given our penchant for fabulous parting words, we're going to just run with this absolute bastardization of old Oscar. Apologies. It's late, hot, and we're still a little cranky. At the very least we've got our sexy magazines to keep us company in the withering heat. The current July/August issue of Wallpaper* includes the Annual Design Directory, which doesn't honestly seem that much different from other issues except the paper isn't so shiny. 5 design company CEO's get glamour shots, while what are apparently the world's 25 best architects get a few little sidebars all to their own. We've heard of exactly zero, but we also don't really like to read anything except our own byline. 10 of the best designers are also listed, one of whom we managed to google-stalk, but at this point everything got very numerical. And we never learned to math.
