Magazines that Inspire

Sometimes you just need an idea. I’m a self-professed magazine junky. I’m also a fickle one. I rarely renew a subscription, and I’m a sucker for special offers. I can’t resist a ridiculously low $12.00 offer for 12 issues. There’s got to be at least a dollar’s worth of ideas in an issue. I also thumb issues at the book store and library. My current rages are Surface and Nylon. Both are edgy, with lively writing and featuring great design including fashion, interior décor, and industrial design.

This is how I use magazines. I like to just page through, skimming articles and tearing out pages as I go. I’m looking for color, textile design, interiors, and current fashion. I then store these treasures in three ring binders that I refer to when I’m in need of an idea.
