Around the World

N.44 of October 27th, 2016

The rule of counterpoint, it seems, applies to merchandise as well. The more “global” a product, the more “local” the creativity that went into it, as well as the effort to keep regional artisan practices and traditions alive and well. We are taking you on a journey around the world, exploring fashion and design from far away, filled with hints from other cultures that all recount the fact that diversity has survived this moment of homogenization. Designers are looking beyond borders for unusual contaminations of global and local elements to inspire them and renew their expressive lexis, nourishing their projects from “abroad”.

The Moodboarders is a glance into the design world, which, in all of its facets, captures the extraordinary even within the routine. It is a measure of the times. It is an antenna sensitive enough to pick-up on budding trends, emerging talents and neglected aesthetics. Instead of essays, we use brief tales to tune into the rhythm of our world. We travelled for a year without stopping, and seeing as the memory of this journey has not faded, we have chosen to edit a printed copy. We eliminated anything episodic, ephemeral or fading, maintaining a variety of articles that flow, without losing the element of surprise, the events caught taking place, and the creations having just bloomed.
