3 stories in the archive, 2019–2025. Published in Casino Style 2025, Casino Design 2022, Casino Design 2019. Filed under Featured Articles, Style Q&A. Bylines are reproduced as the magazine printed them, and every story a contributor signed stays live at its original address. Where a biography ran with the story it appears below; where the magazine printed none, the record is the work itself. Contributors to an annual are a mix of staff editors, industry practitioners writing on their own projects and freelance reporters, and the magazine did not distinguish between them on the page — the section a story ran in is usually the better guide to how it was commissioned.

3 stories sit under the Julie Brinkerhoff Jacobs byline, published between 2019 and 2025. They came out of 3 issues of the magazine, Casino Style 2025 carrying the most at 1. The longest of them is The Brave New World of Design and Construction: An Industry Roundtable.

Across the sections of the magazine they break down as Hospitality (2) and Architecture (1). The design moves that come back most often here are sustainability and leed (3), food halls and chefs (3), water features (2) and theming (2), counted by reading the text of every story rather than from tags. The practices named more than once are Thalden Boyd Emery Architects (3), Lifescapes International (3), Cuningham Group Architecture (3) and Steelman Partners (2), each with its own page in the firm directory. The contributor index holds 31 names and 143 signed stories. In order, the set runs A Whole New Game: Making Money Beyond the Casino Floor, Going Non-Gaming and The Brave New World of Design and Construction: An Industry Roundtable.

Everything filed here is the magazine's own reporting, kept at its original address and re-laid into the current design rather than re-edited. Where a story named a practice, a budget or a room count, the figure is the one that issue printed, and it has been left as it was printed: a 2009 budget is a 2009 budget, and the value of the archive is precisely that it says what was thought at the time instead of what turned out to be true later.
