Alhaus – Issue 6

In a world forever altered, how do we make sense of our new reality? There's no better place to start than within the opinions and ideas of writers, creators, artists and innovators, whose insights can help to shape a more inspiring, inclusive future.

In 144 pages of beautiful design, editorial and interviews, issue no. 6 of ALHAUS magazine considers a future in which nothing can be taken for granted. We speak to The Dotsfounder Pip Jamieson about the future of freelance and to Scandi design maven David Harrigan about the need for courage. Bestselling author Naoise Dolan holds forth on the joy of experimentation, while Black Lives Matter activist Amanda Áde defines the power of listening. As part of our ongoing commitment to #amplifymelanatedvoices, we explore the passion and craft of BIPOC through words and imagery, including that of British illustrator Kazvare.

While international travel remains off limits, ALHAUS magazine takes us on a photographic journey through Iran, Istanbul, Northern Ireland, San Francisco and Ireland's Wild Atlantic Way. With stylish typographic choices and impactful layouts, issue 6 is a feast of colour and words designed to celebrate passion and creativity in this uncertain world.

Zine, Inside The Bean

A ZINE ABOUT COFFEE

Hi! How’ve you bean?

The little zine on your screen started with a few coincidences a few years ago over a coffee in Zurich. One was Anna, heart, drive, and soul of Salt & Wonder. The other was Alicia, our first super fan, seeking some inspiration and community. Coffee is more than caffeine, more than a means to an end. 

We were new to coffee — specialty coffee to be exact — what makes it so special after all? What do these hipsters in their cafés know that we don’t? So we made this little zine with the intention to be a guide. To break up the fear and show how diverse and inviting the world of specialty coffee can be.

Inside this Zine of Salt & Wonder:

– The Journey of the Bean, how it ends up in your cup. / featuring miró manufactura de café (Zurich)

– How coffee shapes our worlds in: A Cultural Thing / interviewing Shem from STOLL Kaffee

– Our color palate in: The Colorful World of Coffee / inspired by COFFEE  

– Ending: Some practical tips in: Not Just for Nerds / featuring 169 West Wine & Coffee Bar

–  Glossary of coffee-related terms. 

We also feature the work of a few very-talented illustrators from across the globe throughout. Coffee is universal after all.

We’re no coffee experts, but we drink it so much we wanted to know more. Turns out it’s nothing to be afraid of, just something to explore. Where might it take you?

Nakako Hayashi

Now, with the benefit of smartphones, we can instantly connect with anyone we want and shop for things online anytime we wish. As it has become much easier to collect massive amounts of information in a blink of an eye, as well as to fulfill our desires, I believe now is the time to ask ourselves the question. “In what do we place our values?” We have consciously begun to make the effort to draw a map using our imagination, by connecting the present to the past, and to design our future beyond that map.

The title for this issue COLLAGE came to mind from an interview with Teppei Kaneuji which was part of a book of interviews I was putting together at the same time, called “Tsukuru Riyuu (The Reason to Create)”: A Series of Interviews by Nakako Hayashi. Stating that his media of expression as a collage, Kaneuji, in his attempt to redefine the concept of collage, says that “A collage is an act to personally resist the conventional time, value, history and sets of rules, and to resist a much larger force with an accumulation of smaller actions.”

Wohnrevue 09—20 | Original |

«Darf man denn ein Original überhaupt verändern?», fragten wir @robert_wettstein. «Absolut», meinte der Gestalter, der seit 20 Jahren den Landistuhl sammelt. Der Schweizer Designklassiker hat sich über die Jahre immer wieder leicht verändert – eine Entwicklung, die er unter anderem in einem Buch dokumentierte, das kürzlich online erschien. Wir waren ausserdem zu Besuch in der Wohnung eines mondänen Paars, das mit viel Feingefühl immer wieder stimmige Veränderungen im Apartment vornimmt, sodass es sich regelmässig im neuen Kleid präsentiert. Objekte mit Klassikerpotenzial haben wir auch in unserem Inspirationsteil stimmig in Szene gesetzt: Neuheiten, Neuauflagen sowie etablierte Modelle aus den Bereichen Leuchten, Tische und Stühle warten darauf, entdeckt zu werden. Vielleicht finden Sie einige dieser Stücke in der Wohnreportage über eine Villa aus den 30er-Jahren wieder, die sich ein Designsammler schick eingerichtet hat.

Floragatan 13

Curated By Acne Studios

An A Magazine Curated By special print project in partnership with Acne Studios, conceived as a visual essay by acclaimed French photographer Philippe Chancel revealing the inner workings of Floragatan 13, the former Czech embassy in Stockholm, Sweden transformed into a fashion atelier and corporate office.

On the occasion of the unveiling of the new Acne Studios headquarters in Stockholm, Sweden, A Magazine Curated By presents Floragatan 13 Curated By Acne Studios, an
architectural and design survey of this exceptional building and its contemporary usage as a fashion atelier and corporate office.

This 100-page document delves into the building floor by floor, beginning with the sixth level management offices and descending ten storeys through each crucial component of the design and production ateliers including inspiring and communal spaces such as the ground floor library, underground canteen and photo studio. Numerous floors reveal bespoke and site-specific design projects by long-time Acne Studios favourites including a state-of-the-art lighting network designed by Benoit Lalloz, furniture by Max Lamb, and artworks by Daniel Silver. Philippe Chancel’s crisp, exacting photography is accompanied by insightful quotes by Acne Studios creative director Jonny Johansson, architect Johannes Norlander, the Acne Studios teams and external collaborators.

INTERVIEW #532: “LANA DEL REY,” - September 2020

Who is Lana del Rey? She is Elizabeth Grant, the New York City-born musician who got her start playing Brooklyn’s underground club circuit. She is the scrappy singer who uploaded two homemade videos to the internet, only to watch her career explode in the aftermath. She is the self-described underdog, an oft-misunderstood purveyor of glamorous and tragic Americana, apocalypse and utopia, breathless romance, and devastating isolation—often crashing into one another. And she is our September 2020 cover star. In our new issue, the first in our history made entirely remotely, the elusive pop star talks to her producer Jack Antonoff about her upcoming album, going country, and the end of the world. Elsewhere in the issue, fashion industry oracle Bethann Hardison tells Zendaya why her fight for diversity is far from over, and movie-star-in-the-making Antony Ramos and his A Star Is Born director Bradley Cooper dissect the fallacy of stardom. Meanwhile, the author Emma Cline talks daddy issues and directing with the legendary filmmaker Brian De Palma, and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Jabari Brisport look to make all kinds of trouble. 

Ahead of the release of his latest novel Inside Story, Martin Amis sits down with his friend Salman Rushdie to reflect on the friends they lost and the literary movement to which they belonged. Nightlife legends Connie Girl and Honey Dijon reminisce on what it was like being a star below 14th Street, and the artist Lawrence Weiner has a conversation about art and abnegation with the rock star Kim Gordon. And feminist icon Gloria Steinem answers a bunch of questions from some of her famous friends and admirerers. All that, and so much more.

Ships end of September/beginning of October

Frame 136

September/October 2020

Due to the cancellation of trade fairs, fashion weeks and any other physical industry event for that matter, brands and manufacturers have felt a greater urge than ever to enter – and capitalize on – the ever-expanding virtual sphere. Reporting on the unprecedented growth of digitally generated artefacts and environments, the September/October issue of Frame explores exhibitions held in cyberspace and the work of a 3D animation artist. Meanwhile, in Frame Lab, we outline why renegotiating the relationship between indoors and out is central to making our future cities more liveable.

GAY TIMES – Issue 508

If you hadn’t already noticed, we’ve had a redesign! GAY TIMES Magazine is going to be the place where you will find insight and discussion on the issues and challenges that face LGBTQ+ people in the the UK and across the world. That will never change. But we also want it to be a place where queer people can be uplifted, inspired and have a moment of escapism. We have so much to celebrate within our diverse and vibrant community, and we want these pages to be filled with some of that joy too.

So what better place to start than with our first two covers for this reimagined quarterly title? As soon as we saw the camp and playful music video for Tinashe’s latest single Rascal, we knew we had to do something spectacular with her. A vintage pink cadillac, Tinashe soda cans, and a 90s-inspired car wash photoshoot later, we achieved that and then some. As a Black, bisexual woman working in the music industry, Tinashe has faced plenty of testing moments in her career. But she has a fiercely loyal LGBTQ+ following who will always support her. In the brilliant accompanying cover story, Tinashe is candid about her sexuality, the challenges she has faced as an artist and what we can expect from her next.

Since the release of his stunning debut album Pony last year, we have been obsessed with Orville Peck. We of course had him for an all-pink Amplify by GAY TIMES digital cover last summer, but his career has sky-rocketed since then so we thought it was time for his GAY TIMES Magazine debut. As our cover shot suggests, everyone wants a piece of the enigmatic country star. We got to speak to Orville about his whirlwind success over the past 18 months following the release of his new EP, Show Pony. We also checked in with Shania Twain (as you do) to find out why she’s such a huge fan and how she found working with Orville on their new track, Legends Never Die.

Elsewhere in the issue we have Drag Race favourites Gigi Goode and Heidi N Closet, the cast and director of Wonder Woman 1984 (Gal Gadot, Kristen Wiig, Chirs Pine, Pedro Pascal and Patty Jenkins), trans model Jari Jones, author Mohsin Zaidi, rising music stars Gia Ford and Walt Disco, internet star Brendan Jordan, Legendary winners House of Balmain, and plenty of new-season fashion from Moncler, Richard Quinn, Dior, Gucci, Lanvin, and more. We also have a powerful photo essay of Pride in lockdown during the summer, an exploration of LGBTQ+ groups in political parties, and a heartfelt discussion around the beauty of interracial relationships within the queer community. We’ve been very busy.

This marks an exciting new era for GAY TIMES Magazine, as well as the organisation as a whole. For more than 45 years we’ve adapted and grown with the core mission of keeping LGBTQ+ representation on the newsstand, queer visibility on your social feed, and the latest stories sent to your inbox. It’s been a challenging and transformative year for many of us, so we want to thank you all for your continued support. We can assure you that we don’t take it for granted. Enjoy the Autumn 2020 issue of GAY TIMES Magazine!

Issue #5: Evergreen Sindrom

The Evergreen Sindrom is a journey we embarked on before our world was enthralled by a pandemic that disrupted our ways of living. It felt like the perfect timing to explore green - a colour that breathes life; in all its forms - considering the moment in time our world found itself. Now, this issue feels more relevant than ever. These times call for industries to rethink processes and values, and for humans to rethink their approach to consumerism, their everyday lifestyle, and contribution to society. The world has slowed down, taking a step back to get a bird’s-eye view of the new reality, and the new behaviours we aim towards.  

In this issue:

Green is, above all, the colour of life. In this edition, we explored life in all its forms, with a particular interest in the evergreen. What does prosperity mean now, how do we manage to continue growing, reinvent ourselves, and change our ways? What is evergreen design? Why is the human-nature relationship so vital? Is it important to talk to plants? When did we lose our connection to the natural world, and did we leave anything valuable behind? What is some of the evergreen wisdom that’s been passed down through generations? We explore all of this within 160 pages of conceptual, carefully-curated editorials, thought pieces and striking visual essays.

Covers by Aiste Ambrazeviciute and Anne Marie Jo.
