INTERNATIONAL
Creative Review, February 2015
For its February issue, Creative Review investigates how “creativity is changing what and how we eat”, with articles ranging from fast-food chains, apps for farmers, Disappearing Dining Clubs to trends in food photography.
Its creative way of illustrating the letters F-O-O-D on the cover is, of course… creative!

Outside, February 2015
I’ve got 100 places I’d rather be, and no. 17 of Outside’s list is definitely one of them, after seeing this cover!
Time Out New York (Annual Singles Issue)
I didn’t know that Time Out New York has an annual “Singles Issue”! And, to top that, also a “Singles Party” to celebrate the launch!
The various stickmen was a great way of illustrating ‘single life’.
View the “singles” partying it up at the “Singles Party” right here.

MagLove by @MediaSlut is a regular slot featuring the best local and international magazine covers every week, recognising well thought-out, powerful and interesting (and hopefully all three-in-one) covers and celebrating the mix of pragmatism, creativity and personal taste that created each of them. The (for now anonymous) blogger behind MediaSlut knows way too much for his own good about media in South Africa, magazines in particular. His mission is to show when SA magazines fail but, most importantly, also when they succeed. If you’re looking for a library about SA magazines and news, this is your one-stop pitstop.
