I am delighted to announce that Fiera Issue 02 is just weeks away. We go to print this week, but I wanted to give you a sneak preview of the front cover – featuring a number I spotted at Ambiente Frankfurt, and like the rest of the magazine, designed by magCulture. Issue 01 has now completely sold out, so pre-order your copy of Issue 02 quick! The first 100 people to order will receive a set of four limited edition postcards featuring some of the best images from the magazine.

Fiera is the biannual print magazine discovering new talent at the world’s design fairs – nominated for Best New magazine in the Magpile Awards just weeks after its launch last year. Issue 02 is out later this month and covers: Northmodern, Copenhagen; the Stockholm Furniture Fair; Ambiente Frankfurt; and Milan Design Week. We start with a Kaleidoscope of everything we saw across the four fairs, organised by colour. Next, we explore some of those designs in more detail, through interviews with designers, articles about how the products are made, and features about the exhibitions they were found in. Finally, Opinion comprises long form essays offering context, insight and analysis.

I can’t wait to hold Issue 02 in my hands, but there’s a lot of hard work to happen between now and then, so wish us luck, and pre-order your copy now!
