Welcome to a new era of the BETTER FUTURE platform, the BETTER FUTURE Magazine. Today, we proudly share with you Issue 1 of the BETTER FUTURE Magazine. This digital publication aims to provide a curated compendium of people, projects, organisations and ideas that are driving design innovation globally. Inside you will find thought leadership and deep dive articles on design concept and theory, profiles on and interviews with leading design executives, a design project showcase, and much more.
Many of you who have been with us through the DRIVENxDESIGN era will remember the Awards Annuals, a series of printed publications which featured the winning projects across each program. The BETTER FUTURE Magazine is the new and improved generation of publications for our brand. In line with our continued sustainable commitments, we have ditched the print model to create a digital-access magazine. Our new mag extends beyond showcased projects to provide our community with considered thought leadership and design insight, which we hope will entertain and exercise our readers’ minds and help them become better equipped to solve design challenges.
Over the last six months, Lucy Grant, Editor and Publisher and Fiona Brand, Head of Brand, have been working on this concept. Today we release the first issue of the quarterly BETTER FUTURE Magazine and it is pure joy to see their work come together for our community to see.
We cannot wait for you all to read Issue 1 and we welcome your feedback as we move on to our next issue. Moving forward, we will have capacity for leading brands to purchase advertising space in the magazine—if you are interested, please get in touch and let’s talk.
