Today The New Yorker is considered by many to be the most influential magazine in the world, renowned for its in-depth reporting, political and cultural commentary, fiction, poetry, and humor. In addition to the weekly print magazine, newyorker.com has become a daily digital destination for news and cultural coverage by staff writers and contributors. In print and online, The New Yorker stands apart for its commitment to truth and accuracy, for the quality of its prose, and for its insistence on exciting and moving every reader.

Backstage Talks 5 | Life can easily feel too fast or too slow. But how can we find the right pace? We went looking for answers with some of the world’s best creatives, researchers and strategists.

In this issue, you can look forward to 5 essays on work, time and pace. Further in the quick ‘To the point’ section, we asked 9 of the people whose work we admire 3 questions on how they manage their time. Read the answers from Shantell Martin, Khoi Vinh, Veronica Ditting, Scott Dadich, Milota Sidorova, Dean Poole, Henrieta Moravcikova, John Maeda, and Sara Hilden-Bengtsson. And in ‘The hidden gem’ section — A gallery of works by one of the most significant Slovak architects, Vladimír Dedecek.

Plus 12 long-read interviews:

With illustrator Jean Jullien about building a life-long career in the industry obsessed with newness.
With Pentagram New York partner Eddie Opara about why design is about creating systems, not solving problems.
With designer Suzy Tuxen on the false economy of overtime culture.
With Rory Sutherland, Vice Chairman of Ogilvy UK, on why we shouldn’t assume people act rationally.
With Marina Willer — designer, filmmaker, and partner at Pentagram London — on giving ourselves the chance to appreciate the little things and helping others reflect on life through our work.
With Jenni Rommaniuk, who has spent decades researching what makes a successful brand: “If you don’t have metrics, how is anyone supposed to believe you?”
With Francesco Franchi about the future of printed press, the feeling of reading a newspaper and how printed press became a status symbol.
With Game UX researcher Graham McAllister about how big budget games crash on lack of feedback during development, misaligned teams and, simply, being boring.
With Lance Wyman, who revolutionised the use of symbols with his legendary identity for the 1968 Olympics in Mexico, we spoke about understanding different cultures and why he is not planning to retire anytime soon.
With Lou Downe, on fixing badly designed government services — the biggest unnecessary cost to the UK taxpayer.
With ReD Associates on asking the right questions and conducting rigorous ethnographic research to help companies navigate their strategy in changing and challenging times.
With Gail Bichler on her fast-paced, social, ambitious, exhilarating, stressful, amazing, and experimental role as the Design Director of The New York Times Magazine.

Backstage Talks is a magazine of casual, but in depth dialogues on design and business. Our decisions shape and influence this complex world—to have a chance to make the right ones, we need to talk.

99 Percent Lifestyle is a one-man magazine run by Conor Rees. Conor is a Journalism graduate who began 99 Percent Lifestyle straight out of University in 2015. Since then, and the official launch of 99 Percent Lifestyle Volume 1, Conor has won multiple Media and Journalism awards at the annual MMS Awards 2016, as well as being a judge at the prestigious Midlands Media Awards 2016 in October.

99 Percent Lifestyle began as a university project in 2015. Conor wanted to create a platform that shared valuable content and advice from leading creatives and professionals in particular industries in the lifestyle world. The idea was that this content could inspire people to live a more creative life, from advice on becoming a photographer or designer, learning how to cook by reading recipes from top restaurants, advice on starting your own business from people who have already done it, or simply to travel more and create your own travel adventures.

Issue 2: The Mind

This is a magazine for creatives, founders and freelancers, and it’s focused on mental health.

It’s based on long form conversations diving deep into what usually gets left out in interviews. The bad days. The impostor syndrome. All sorts of fears and an overwhelming anxiety that follow every brave choice a person ever makes.

From essays about the millenial generation working to a point they find themselves too busy to have sex, to vulnerable first person letters talking about changing professions, making bold decisions and looking after one’s mind before looking for funding.

Emotional eating is being addressed alongside helpful tips on how not to eat one's emotions. Also, the reader will find some quirky recipes for emotional snacking, if an emergency deadline happens.

Lastly, the magazine questions what happens to one's career after getting pregnant and welcoming a new life to this planet (and your ‘to do’ list).

It’s funny, sad at times, vulnerable to the backbone, and it aims to start a much needed conversation about mental health at work.
