Design Reviewed #3

The latest issue of Disegno’s new sibling publication, Design Reviewed #3, is a warm, witty and incisive compendium of some of the best design writing going: a series of nine essays examining topics from government policies intended to promote repairable fashion, to AI technology designed to assess the quality of olive oil.

The issue covers a range of stories, including Lagos Space Programme’s garment-based research into queerness in a west-African context; a vision of bike-based spatial navigation advocated by Beeline; the rise of Stills, a new stock photograph website created by designers for designers; Tatiana Bilbao’s ruin-like aquarium in Mazatlán, Mexico; and much more.

Design Reviewed #3 includes essays by Michael Snyder, Jonna Dagliden Hunt, Joshua Segun-Lean, Joe Lloyd, Felix Chabluk Smith and Lily Wakeley, as well as Disegno’s Evi Hall, Lara Chapman and Oli Stratford. It has been designed by Jonas Hirschmann, with creative direction from Studio AKFB.
