Having had much of his work presented lately, from a MoMA exhibit, to the occasional blog revisiting it. Especially his work for Esquire magazine, George Lois is in the consciousness and for much reason. His work is amazing. Not that I need to supplement that consciousness anymore but I thought the Hug should give a Hug to some of that amazing. Here are a few covers that perhaps have not seen as much light of day as that iconic Muhammad Ali cover. Hugs.

The Gentlewoman is the lady counterpart to Dutch magazine Fantastic Man.

Had the great pleasure of meeting the person behind this wonderful publication. Soon to be released stateside. Looks like we will also be honored to be carrying this zine soon. Keep a look out in the right column! Looking lovely and many hugs. Nazine.

Interesting little interview here about the recent re-design of a personal classic of mine – FHM Magazine. Refreshing to hear a designer plain speaking, for a change, as opposed to being over post-rational about the design process. Also looks like they’ve done a great job too.

We’ve covered them before and now it looks like they have a spanking new website filled with quite amazing works. Have a look see at the output of studio Julia when you get a chance. Amazingly nice.

A pretty comprehensive site with a lot of work to explore. Almost too much. But a real nice sensitivity here towards type and layout. Have a look see when you get a chance. Coming at you straight out of Austria, Moodley.

Like movies? Like music? Like cool and unpredictable editorial design? Like illustrations by Paul Willoughby? Then check out Little White Lies. Put together by the London-based creative agency The Church of London, this alternative little magazine started, and still is, a self-initiated and self-financed entity. Proud proof of what a great deal of personal passion and hard work can manifest. I’m liking it.

A new and well executed platform to spread style intellingence. Gravure magazine is a new American showcase site of some very talented leaders in the fashion industry including the likes of Susan Cianciolo , Alex Freund, and David Armstrong. This online magazine is a brave testament of magazine as portfolio for professional service. This is easily understood after you investigate the business of Gravure Projects.

I’ve been a long time fan of Candy Magazine. It’s a truly viable PDF publication. Check out their latest issue filled with a lineup of heavy hitters like Timothy Saccenti, Jesper Lindstrom, and Neil Gavin.

The venerable DP introduced me to Issuu a while ago. I have recently been prowling the vast shelves of this growing platform. The experience is not 100%, but I dare say that it’s a nice way to peruse all the fashion magazines of the world! Here are some of my favorite recent finds.

Nigel Tomm’s Famous Photographers. An interesting take on a photo book.

11 horses is a compilation of Prezenn Storm’s photographic work in magazine form.

Kingdom Magazine is put out by Daniel Vázquez.

I Love Fake Magazine featured our favorite nude troublemakers, Hasisi Park!

Soko Zine is an Argentinian effort by We Make Pogo.

POSI+TIVE MAGAZINE is a collection of things which happens in the world that we want to show with different points of view, through stories, photos, draws and other kinds of visual art.

Rocket Magazine is a fine Spanish publication.
