Fiera We Heart

Fiera Magazine has been getting some fantastic press coverage, so I thought I would share some of it with you. “Hang the bunting, strike up the band and let loose the fireworks, for our very own Katie Treggiden is launching a new print magazine,” said We Heart‘s Executive Editor Rob Wilkes.

Fiera Talking New Media

“The new magazine will not lack for talent as Katie Treggiden publishes the popular confessions of a design geek blog, while Jeremy Leslie runs a design studio which also publishes the magCulture blog about magazine design,” said Talking New Media‘s DB Hebbard.

Fiera Stack Magzines Steve Watson

“I first met Katie Treggiden, author of the confessions of a design geek blog, when she attended one of my Magazine Publishing Masterclasses at the Guardian,” said Steve Watson, founder of Stack Magazines. “She arrived with a strong idea for a print magazine and left with a steely determination to make it happen. And so it is that, this week, she launched the Kickstarter campaign for Fiera, a new magazine dedicated to covering the world’s design fairs.”

Fiera HOP Interiors

“I’m so excited for my friend and fellow blogger, Editor of Confessions of A Design Geek, Katie Treggiden who has teamed up with the multi-talented and design publication legend Jeremy Leslie (what he doesn’t know about magazine publishing and design isn’t worth knowing) to create FIERA,” says HOP Interiors‘ Mary-Ellen Paul.

Huge thanks to all of the above, and to everyone who’s been spreading the word through social media. We’ve already passed the £2K mark, after just three days, which is amazing! Look forward to seeing as many of you as possibly at the launch party tonight! And make you back the campaign and pre-order your copy via Kickstarter here.
