Distill #2
The second issue of Distill has been out a couple of weeks now. It remains a project I really want to like and support – the concept of a single publication that presents the best work from smaller, independent magazines is a strong one. But focusing primarily on the fashion part of this market limits it’s scope in my view. There are plenty of other aspects of independent magazines worth covering.
One highlight in issue two is Tony Chamber’s review of his favourite recent cover – Fabien Baron’s relaunch issue of Interview starring Kate Moss (below), in which he stresses how magazines need to be as much about product design as much as graphic design. It’s important how magazines feel. Magazine-y if you like.

Yes, I love that issue myself. Part of me wishes I had never taken it out of the plastic, but the contents were glorious!
