sabotabbyAll you commies, design geeks, and commie design geeks, check out Unrealized Moscow. Now, if only they had something similar for architectural visions between 1917 and 1930, given that those are the best ones.

rohmie, A WINNER IS YOU! Your slightly used copy of the latest, hot-off-the-press issue of Upping the Anti will be in the mail as soon as I finish reading it. (Hey, I didn't say the prize was any good.)
