Designers: Jack Self, Editor-in-Chief, and OK-RM (Oliver Knight and Rory McGrath), Creative Directors Graphics category

Real Review

A quarterly magazine that explores ‘ what it means to live today’.

Funded via Kickstarter, the project has built an engaged readership who have responded enthusiastically to the premise of an accessible platform for robust debate around contemporary architecture. The magazine rejects the prevailing notion of architecture and design magazines as lifestyle-focused artefacts designed for the coffee table; instead, it offers a content-driven, newspaper-inspired platform.
