I am absolutely over the moon to announce that Fiera Magazine will be working with 26, a creative writing organisation with the aim “to inspire a greater love of words.” Following in the footsteps of 26 Treasures, I will be running a project called 26 Designs. I will pair 26 writers with 26 new designers and ask the writers to respond creatively to the products being designed and made for the London Design Festival. Gorgeous photography of the products will sit alongside the writers’ responses throughout Fiera Magazine.
In other news, the Kickstarter campaign has just six days to go and while we’re doing really well, we’ve got a long way to go, so tell your friends, up your pledges, take to social media (#FieraMag), do whatever you can to spread the word and make this happen! Thank you.
