nataliemiklosic: “I.D. Magazine, a Design Icon, Folds After 55 Years in Print” crap. Things that can’t have helped: 1. Going from $8 to $18 an issue. I don’t even pay that for Cabinet, and that’s a fat, nicely printed quarterly on good paper. 2. Having the same exact name as another stylish magazine. 3. Too much style, not enough substance. It’s nice to look at, but I feel like a print format can go much deeper than say, Core77. The last issue I looked at had a big spread of Moby playing Rock Band, or some similar funky bullshit that I don’t read I.D. for.

If I have learned anything this quarter it is that I need to learn Chinese and you probably do to.

This sort of detailing is all the rage in the young men’s denim brands. It is everywhere and it is hideous. Bedazzled, multifinish hardware diarrhea.
