Is this magazine released yet or just promotional issues in circulation? I LOVE the graphic design/typography

It was released a few days ago I think.

If anyone is interested, it was started and is run by photographer Svein Bringsdal and stylist Rikke Straus. Thorbjørn Kongshavn from Kongshavn Design is AD and Olof Bruce is in charge of graphic design.

oh the editorial is awesome but she looks freaking scary on the cover

 

[AnaBGD]

She looks striking on the cover. I like the ed too, especially b/w shots, beautiful!

I love it

Nice to see Siri on the cover. I'd like to see more of the magazine...

There's so many Scandinavian magazines. I've stopped counting. Which country is it from specifically, does anyone know?

I find this incredibly cheap looking. No offense to the people involved, but the cover looks like some kind of DIY Photoshop experiment, worse than the free mags you get at the mall. Poor Siri

I love that last sentence on the first page: "Grace Jones has nothing on you!"

Norway (in Bergen, if anyone cares)

and Saracita, doesn't really get what you mean. SVA has one of the best logos in the fashion-mag industry (only topped by i-D, POP and Vogue), great typography, and in my opinion the photo of Siri is great, and the color-balance and hues are very eye-pleasing. I think they gave gone a little far with the retouching of her skin, and the contrast of light and shade in her face, but that is nitpicking when the overall impression is so impressive. At least in my opinion.

I don't see what there is to like about the typography, it looks very amateur, horrible cover.

Name two. There really isn't a lot around.

ugh, terrible cover, I hate the plastic-like skin. Those shadows are really artificial and the shiny parts capture too much attention.
The ed is not much better, it has some kind of... greasy texture, with all those shiny bits and that terrible skin tone (I especially hate the 3rd picture). I wish all the photos were black and white, they're much better even though the skin still looks quite artificial.
Oh, and did I say I hate the 3rd picture?
