Design Week

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Design Week is a UK-based magazine launched in 1986 for the design industry. The publication was originally a Haymarket title, later transferred to Centaur Communications and currently [2007] published by Centaur Media PLC[1]. ABC primary circulation for 2007 was 8,074[2].

Design Week is a business publication as distinct from design-focused publications like Wallpaper* and Creative Review. Its competitors include Brand Republic, Marketing Week, and New Media Age. Its readers come from commercial design disciplines which range from retail, products and packaging to graphics, interiors, exhibitions and digital.

Back issues[3] ranging back to [at least] 1995 include contemporary design news and interviews/retrospectives of noteworthy but not widely known designers since c.1960, e.g. Raymond Hawkey[4] and Frank Stephenson[5].
