According to editor Takuhito Kawashima the idea for the issue was born out of a serendipitous Parisian coffee date with the photographer Osma Harvilahti, whose candid documentation of his partner over the course of their relationship highlighted the human ‘impulse to follow’. This tender series, titled ‘Butterflies’, opens the issue, and is followed by a selection of Tokuko Ushioda’s black and white photographs of over 100 refrigerators, exploring the ubiquitous appliance’s function as both time capsule and physical manifestation of ‘the way we live.’\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003ePlus, contributions from Masayuki Tanaka, Christine Sun Kim, Rebekka Deubner, Nigel Shafran, Naira Sabandar, Masaomi Yasunaga, and more.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.partners.studio\/magazine\"\u003epartners.studio\/magazine\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"magCulture","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45631542755437,"sku":null,"price":28.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0514\/7889\/files\/Partners_4.png?v=1786711032","url":"https:\/\/magculture.com\/products\/partners-4","provider":"magCulture","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
