The low res digital proofs from our printer, ready for review.
The cover is output as a high quality; it's on a glossy stock for colour proofing purposes though the actual magazine cover is printed on uncoated.
The cover illustration is by Norwegian dynamic duo Darling Clementine. (Look for a feature article about them in this issue.) The cherries on the front cover will have a scented varnish applied for a scratch and sniff effect! (Activated by scratching only; the magazine will have its usual vegetable ink and paper smell as well.)
Another scratch and sniff detail for the back!
The logo position hasn't changed in seventeen issues and the standardized cover design format still allows for a lot of play and variety from one to the next.
The diagonal motif is the repeating pattern throughout this issue. It was inspired by air mail stationery.
Seventeen issues! I still can't believe that I've done so many. How time flies... (Speaking of time flying, my little baby boy turns 3 this week!)
Lots of inspiring content in this issue, with a focus on paper goods and stationery. Plus explorations of fragility, transparency and ephemerality.
