MOYO magazine launch!

Today is a special day in the design industry… it sees the launch of MOYO, the world’s first online magazine dedicated to surface pattern design! Packed with interviews, design briefs, colour challenges, art reviews, student showcases, design tips, inspiration, trends and more, this free resource will be published quarterly, and you can read and download the inaugural issue here!* ISSUE ONE August 2012 This premiere issue includes an exclusive interview with hot new talent Louise Tiler, a designer diary from myself and a design brief for you from Japan! Read it here! Please feel free to share this resource on your blog, in your newsletters etc and tell all your friends about it. You can download it by clicking on the magazine and saving it from there. It is free and we want to share the wonderful world of surface pattern design with as many people as possible! Thank you so much.

ISSUE TWO Out November 2012! We already have so much exciting content planned for the next issue (out November). It will include a Q&A with Khristian A Howell and a designer diary from Studio Seed, so stay tuned for more surface pattern design goodness! Click here to subscribe.

This magazine has been several months in the making and we are thrilled to launch it into the world. ‘MOYO’ (pronounced mo-yor) is from the Japanese for ‘pattern’. We hope you like the name, design, layout and feel of the magazine! Beth Nicholls and I have worked with a dream team on this project (see page 4 of the magazine!) and we hope this will become a regular read for you. We would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone who has helped bring this project to life, especially designer Jessica Swift, project manager Louise Gale and illustrator Robyn Taylor.
