New Scandiwegian architecture/urbanism magazine Conditions looks rather lovely – a graphical cross between icon and Frame, perhaps – no bad thing. (Bonus link: icon this month features a grumpy cover by a graphic design hero – first Brody, now Jasper Morrison; old people today, no respect for print, I tells ya.)
Looks like there are some interesting infographics in there, too. Conditions does have a good name, and I’m looking forward to seeing a copy – but its launch cover reminds me more than a little of Loops. Space helmets are clearly in right now.
