review :: milan design week 2013

Katie, April 23, 2013June 16, 2020
This article was published 14 years

I made a magazine! It’s only eight pages long, but it is a complete review of my Milan Design Week – I hope you enjoy it.

I hope to do these again in the future, so I would be very grateful for all your thoughts, feedback and comments. (Be kind!)

Further reading for the especially geeky:

  • out and about :: milan 2013
  • out and about :: salonesatellite 2013
  • out and about :: ventura lambrate 2013
  • out and about :: spazio rossana orlandi

And a massive thank you to Kyla McCallum who taught me how to use InDesign a few weeks ago as part of a skills swap!

here's one I made earlier: the joy of stamps

December 27, 2010June 16, 2020

Two of my many lovely design-related Christmas presents were sets of stamps from Yellow Owl Workshop all the way from San Francisco. I supplemented them with an alphabet set from Muji and immediately got to work making my thank you cards. I’m really proud of them, but credit must go to Yellow Owl Workshop for the beautifully designed and made stamps.

    How exciting Katie! Well-done. I think 8 pages are perfect. It was a good idea to place the links to relevant designers etc.

    Best wishes
