Ark Journal Volume 10

Ark Journal Volume 10 is a tribute to the worlds of design and architecture – past, present, and future – which have defined and inspired Ark Journal's journey over the past five years.

For this issue, the authors delve into the intersections of human life with architecture and design, uncovering the profound impact they can have on people's lives at home and in public spaces.

Visited is designer Phillip Lim´s beachside house in Long Island; a historic house in Düsseldorf remade for the artist Su Xiaobai; a brutalist home in Bruges; Henri Timi’s workshop in Marche, to name a few. The authors speak to Formafantasma and Tadao Ando, and invitied Colin King to style and curate the craft culture-centred collection of American designer Jack Lenor Larsen. The case studies with stylist Pernille Vest continue, exploring the perfectly imperfect, unpolished edges and raw materiality that reveals simple perfection.

At Ark Journal, we believe that the magazine is more than just a publication; it’s a celebration of the beauty and simplicity that defines Scandinavian design and architecture. It has always been important to the makers that the material quality of Ark Journal matches the honest and inventive design stories in the magazine.

Volume 10 has four different covers, please pick the one you prefer.
