Twin Magazine





I love Twins and I'm not talking about the movie with Danny DeVito and Arnold Schwarzenegger. I'm coveting this beautiful new publication from Becky Smith (of Lula magazine via Vogue). Twin a limited edition print run of only 500 so I'm going to have the act fast to get my paws on it. I hear they have some at Colette, Paris online.

Twin is perhaps more book than magazine, but it's delicious fashion editorials make me drool. And I can't get over the fact that it's hand screen printed and hard covered. Wow. I'm impressed. It's awesome because it brings back the craft of magazine making and peels off the gloss. Nice and raw. They way it should be. And it's no surprise this is the magazine's mantra.

Issue one has some major contributors like Miranda July, Todd Selby and Garance Doré. It's Danny DeVito approved!

Looks great. I agree; design should always avoid cutting corners/costs especially regarding offset printing. Just a shame its so expensive to do more by hand though

I love is mutual SeeSaw!

Sarah is wicked. That chili piece was the first project she did for us and it is my top ten favorite piece in the magazine. She's not just talented, but also really nice. I wish everyone could have a little Sarah Illenberger in their life. What a super star.
