Articles I've been reading
Mostly posting them for future reference

Art Manifestos and their applications in contemporary design.

Article about how material produced by designers defines them right down to client communication. Interesting in relation to the self-indulgent and inspirational qualities of stylepress. If done properly a stylepress magazine exploring format could become an inspirational manifesto declaring a specific position on format and reader experience.


Unit Editions

A publishing venture involving Adrian Shaugnessy from Mute magazine. Though not defined as a magazine, this venture aligns heavily with stylepress philosophies and in my opinion can be viewed as a type of Stylepress magazine. Interesting in relation to pushing the definition of what a magazine could be, blurring the line between magazine, publishing company and the graphic designer as artist (works created to be sold for their design qualities).
