A Guide Magazine Issue 2 – Spring/ Summer 2010

¨The title A Guide Magazine stands for the combination of a guide and a magazine in the form of a magazine-in-a-magazine concept. Every issue contains a removable city guide, exploring the top spots of a city or region. With this concept – and in a conscious attempt to compare with the examples we portray, we too want to break new ground and offer a new product. Above all this intention manifests in the form of presentation: from photo spreads to graphic design, we´re proposing a novel approach to designing magazines. Instead of pursuing superficial trends, we explore hidden qualities.
The first two issues are dedicated to Vienna. Together with experts, we went on a search for the city´s Top 50 Creative Spots.

Contents
Horsey Business
. The Spanish Riding School an interview with Elisabeth Guertler
. Monkey Business – Money can´t beat luck on the racetrack
. The Mercedes for horses – The family entrerprise Bockman

Including a guide featuring the top 50 places in Vienna.

Dead Ends – Theo Simpson

The series explores the issues of unemployment by collecting and documenting discarded job centre slips. The slips were found in and around three Sheffield jobcentres, between August 2009 and March 2010. Many were discovered well away from the jobcentres themselves: lying on back streets, scrunched in phone booths, and stuffed in salt bins. They have been collected and documented in their original state.

Size: 245 x 172mm
Printing: Single colour offset, 24pp, softback with plastic dust jacket, 2 x A3 riso posters
Edition of 400
