Design Anthology UK, Issue 18

Design Anthology UK is a triannual print magazine spotlighting the best of design, architecture, art, travel and style across Europe. As with Design Anthology, our sister publication in Asia, we combine the highest production values with thought-provoking content, setting a new standard for premium design and lifestyle titles in the UK.

When we were shaping ideas for the inaugural issue, we asked two questions: What is our point of view? And, when there are countless other magazines covering design in Europe: Why now? The answer is fairly straightforward. We believe there is room for a new kind of considered, premium title that champions quality, beauty and innovative thinking.

Each issue is put together by our network of writers, photographers, editors and stylists – all bound by a commitment to creativity and candor. Far from a glossy catalogue to be discarded, Design Anthology UK is a collectible volume made by people who are passionate about print.

In this issue:

Issue 18 of Design Anthology UK arrives on the heels of an inspiring season of design events across the UK and Europe, where fresh ideas, new materials and ambitious business ventures are bubbling away. This edition is dedicated to the creative energy of our community. We hear about Henry Holland’s journey from fashion into product design; we explore new sustainable platform, Folk Reykjavik; we sit down with fashion darling Erdem, whose latest collection embraces the spirit of Debo Mitford; we highlight the creative and culinary culture of Scandinavian nation, The Faroe Islands; and we reveal what designer Michael Anastassiades is reading, listening to and inspired by right now. Plus, we showcase distinctly enchanting homes in Joshua Tree, London and Denmark. There is so much creativity happening in our orbit, and we’re thrilled to share some of it with you.
