Rare, out-of-print, impossible-to-find. Straight from the private collection of our curator. So, once it’s gone, it’s gone.
About: Backstage Talks is a magazine of casual, but in-depth dialogues on design and business.
Cover drawing by James Jarvis
Hartmut Esslinger told us about meeting Steve Jobs — and telling him Apple designs are “kitschy American bullshit” — before he went on to help Apple create a holistic design strategy. We spoke to hilarious visual comedian Mr.Bingo about not taking life too seriously and being open about the parts of life that aren’t perfect. Rejane dal Bello spoke about life-long projects, Mark Porter on translating credibility and confidence into the editorial design, and Veronica Fuerte looked back on 10 years of her Hey studio.
You can also read our beloved three-hour-long conversation with James Jarvis, full of pop and skate culture references and unusual connections. James also drew the figure that is on the cover and has a gallery of his drawings in this issue. And much more!
Backstage Talks is a magazine of casual, but in-depth dialogues on design and business. Our decisions shape and influence this complex world—to have a chance to make the right ones, we need to talk.
