Welcome to the new Metromode

You may have noticed that things look a little bit different around here. That's because we redesigned our site to be more friendly to you, kind Metromode reader.

Some things you can look forward to when using our new site include cleaner design, simplified navigation, faster page loads, and bigger and more impactful photography.

The redesign happened in conjunction with the launch of our new parent site, Second Wave Michigan, which will connect Metromode's stories of community, development, and innovation in the Detroit region with other great stories from around the state. Metromode joins six other Issue Media Group publications under the Second Wave banner.

"We are excited to offer an enhanced and cohesive brand to our Michigan readers," says Paul Schutt, co-founder of Issue Media Group. "As a publisher in an ever evolving media landscape, it is important that we remain nimble and adapt to current trends."

We hope you like what you see, and we look forward to sharing more great stories from metro Detroit and other communities around the state of Michigan.
