If you’re thinking about getting a new publication off the ground, you’ve probably already spent some time hashing out what it might look like. But therein lies the rub: conceptualizing a design and executing it are different skills entirely. And if you lack the latter (or if you have the design skills but are pressed for time), creating a magazine layout can be difficult at best.

One of the greatest strengths of graphic designers is the ability to first develop a concept and then execute it to make it real. From visualization and ideation all the way through to actuation and execution, each step of this process takes skill and expertise.

In comparison, we know relatively little about 20th century Belgian graphic design — despite a rich, bold history in pushing boundaries across posters, flyers and other printed ephemera, typography, editorial design, and more.

Genderfluidity as the future of design and culture. With Eurocentric standards as the norm, our natural instinct may be to fall back on modernism and an Apple-esq aesthetic in pursuit of a gender neutral and universal design style. However, as much as we might like to generalize a style, design can never truly be free of meaning, culture, gender, and bias.
