Nice to see a mention to WTW in the article about indie publications business models. Connection with the readers matters, and is at the heart of the all publishing. eyeondesign.aiga.org/are-mem…

Works That Work worksthatwork.com/ の日本編集版が今出るのすごく良いなと思って買った。帯文良い「流行のコンセプトや成功事例ばかりがメディアを流通する。しかし、日常生活や社会環境がその必要から生み出した工夫や営みにこそ、デザインが向き合うべき課題がある」

I truly believe that people are social creatures and want to help others. Sometimes, they just fail to consider consequences of their actions. A thing I learned while editing @WorksThatWork magazine is that good design/action should benefit *ALL* involved parties. – at Republic of Croatia

Design in 2018 | 4. A sad loss for design in 2018 was the closure of the brilliant Dutch design journal Works That Work. It produced ten issues over fie years, all exploring "unexpected creativity” and politically charged aspects of vernacular design.
