design journalism."

John Barratt, CEO & President, Teague – USA

Curve is one of the only design trade magazines that reflects on new trends and projects in this region. At Philips, we believe Curve offers quality articles for designers, and improves the knowledge of readers with insights and interesting articles in a clear layout.

I was surprised and thrilled to receive a copy of Curve yesterday containing the article on plastics the team here at Holden Design contributed to. Thank you for sending it; I was really impressed with the way it was presented.

Even before I received the magazine, I had a call from one of our plastic component suppliers who had read the article, and wanted to demonstrate their research on embedded electronics that we had mentioned. So you can see the story has already generated interest amongst the readership.

Thanks again and regards

John Field, Design Manager, Holden Design – Australia

My design team and I look forward eagerly to every issue of Curve. It has all of the latest trends, applications and information for the design field, while being full of inspiration and great ideas. Curve keeps us connected to the design world.

Curve magazine is the only truly comprehensive periodical for the Industrial Design profession. With both it's domestic and international perspective as well as it's articles on the business of design, materials and processes, fashion and architecture, Curve gives the profession what it needs.

It is refreshing to see a publication that deals with detail as much as it deals with aesthetics. I found the style of writing very interesting and to the point. I look forward to each edition.

Dominic Russo, Director, Diadem – Australia

Curve shares Australian design with the world; and it brings a fresh international perspective. It's notable in the way it 'gets in the face' of design and designers, bringing insightful profiles on inspirational designers, on design change and thinking, and through comprehensive coverage of design events and awards. It forms a valuable part of my library.

As senior industrial designer in a Brisbane manufacturing company I always look forward to the next copy of Curve, which is then circulated to my colleagues and remains in our company's design library as a great reference tool.
