This magazine almost strays close to the beautiful books produced by the likes of Angus Hyland and Klanten of Die Gestalten Verlag. There is a strong design element lurking behind these pages. Many pdf art magazines tend to let the work hold its own residing on some relatively shaky page layouts. This is well made and consistent throughout. It has that extra edge of something considered and therefore professional.
Their reasons in not being another one of those beautiful books I hoard in my shelves is to do with ethics and accessibility. They save the planet and let everyone peruse its well made pages. And this is not all they do. Their website holds a host of interesting sections. This is not a sideline project, this is passion and involvement and commitment. And they know it: 'In terms of hard stats we are the world’s largest, both in physical size and downloads, independently produced free downloadable creative magazine.'
And I have no idea how or if you can get your work in there. Give them a try. They sound friendly. driven. in the know. involved.
