I told you about the awesome Herb Lester guides/maps before. I would love to write a guide for Cape Town – so I emailed them and wrote a couple of blog posts for their journal.
As I’m leaving for Europe in a couple of days, I also ordered myself a bunch of new guides… excited to explore!
The Work Magazine is another new-ish publication.
‘The WORK Magazine is a international quarterly publication which focuses on conceptual ideas within art, fashion, culture and design. It strives to challenge pre-conceived notions of aesthetics by giving artists the creative freedom to explore and interpret current and progressive ideas. Presenting work from both emerging and established artists, photographers and other creatives. We support those who have a unique approach and follow their own beat. Enjoy, inspire, be inspired and spread the love.’
‘Off Switch Magazine was born out of a desire to encourage people of all ages and backgrounds to get up and act upon their dreams. Whether that dream is taking a pottery class, learning to sew, starting a band, or becoming a self-employed artist, Off Switch is here to inpsire and remind readers that all things are possible. Full of beautiful images and words with the intention of sparking ideas and motivating mindfullness of self and surroundings, Off Switch is first and formost a reminder to live life fully…without an off switch.’ I love all these new publications, print is hearted, can’t wait to one day publish a mag as well. Exciting times.
The The Evening Edition is the perfect commute-sized way to catch up on the day’s news after a long day at work.

Have you heard of the Wayfare Magazine?
‘Wayfare is a brand new publication celebrating the art of the journey. Every element of Wayfare highlights what we feel travel should be: motivating, accessible, and delightful — whether you are in a faraway place, on a weekend getaway or simply exploring a new corner of your hometown. We recognize that travel is not defined by how many miles you cover. It’s about finding inspiration along the way and celebrating the everyday moments. It’s about the spirit of discovery – breaking out of your routine to unwind, connect, and learn. It’s this desire to go, to celebrate and to experience that drives everything we do.’
Read the summer issue 2012.
‘Kinfolk is a growing community of artists with a shared interest in small gatherings. We recognize that there is something about a table shared by friends, not just a wedding or once-a-year holiday extravaganza, that anchors our relationships and energizes us. We have come together to create Kinfolk as our collaborative way of advocating the natural approach to entertaining that we love. Every element of Kinfolk—the features, photography, and general aesthetics—are consistent with the way we feel entertaining should be: simple, uncomplicated, and less contrived. Kinfolk is the marriage of our appreciation for art and design and our love for spending time with family and friends.’ I think I will love this magazine. Can’t wait to get my hands on a copy.
‘AfriPOP! is the ultimate online destination for the latest new trends in African music, African fashion, and film. Whether spotlighting emerging talent or the latest in art, politics and commerce, AfriPOP! delivers fresh content specifically geared to sophisticated Afropolitans all over the globe. We speak to an audience who grew up with African values but aren’t afraid to think of themselves as global citizens. AfriPOP! is the go-to-insider guide for engaging commentary on what young Africans (on the continent and elsewhere) are talking about.’ Check it out.
Have you heard of the Offscreen Magazine? Can’t wait to get my hands on one.
‘Offscreen is an “old-fashioned” magazine in high-quality print, exploring the life and work of people that create websites and apps. We want to tell the less obvious human stories of creativity, passion and hard work that hide behind every interface.’
The Inventory Magazine is a ‘Curation of Ideas in Product, Craft & Culture. It features on some of the most inspiring and talented people in the industry, as well as editorials, reviews and original photography.’
