Hasta La Ideas

Following this summer’s news that Paige Rense Noland was retiring and Elle Decor‘s Margaret Russell was taking over as Editor-in-Chief, all the big changes at Architectural Digest are almost complete with today’s announcement of the magazine’s almost entirely all-new editorial staff. As you might recall from our post about Russell landing the top job, with that shift in leadership also came a move from Los Angeles to New York, where the magazine will now be located. Although a few staffers from before the swap are keeping their jobs and staying on back in LA, the majority come from other New York-based magazines, as well as a few who had worked for Russell at Elle Decor. Here’s the complete list:

Executive Editor: Sarah Medford, formerly Director of Arts, Culture & Design at Town & Country

Managing Editor: Lawrence Karol, formerly Executive Managing Editor at W Magazine

Special Projects Editor: Mitchell Owens, formerly Editor at Large at Elle Decor

Interiors Editor: Robert Rufino, formerly Vice President of Creative Services at Tiffany & Co., and most recently, a Senior Editor at Large at House Beautiful

Design Editor: Howard Christian, formerly manager of the Treillage design/home-furnishings/garden shops

Style Editor: Elana Frankel, formerly Decorating Editor at Martha Stewart Living

Senior Writer: Sam Cochran, formerly a freelance writer specializing in design, arts and culture, and travel

Copy Chief: Kate Hambrecht, formerly Copy Chief at Elle Decor

Assistant Editor, Digital: Katherine Jerde, formerly Editorial Assistant at Architectural Digest in Los Angeles

Margaret Dunne, the former Executive Editor of Architectural Digest in Los Angeles has been named Consulting Editor, as has former Special Projects Manager, James Munn, both will remain in Los Angeles. George Moscahlades, Architectural Digest‘s former Art Director, will stay on as Consulting Designer in New York.

Dancehall tribute tees from a new London label

From the play on the Guess logo to the cartoon-style illustrations of dancehall stars by Daniel David Freeman, the debut line from the new t-shirt label
Ranks hits all the right ’90s pop culture marks. “Born out of an urge to create garments that we wanted to wear, but simply weren’t available,” these first three tees imagine idealized tour shirts of favorite reggae artists.

New releases every 10 weeks will follow, pick them up for £20 each (you’re not paying for t-shirt or printing quality) from the
Ranks online shop.

pAs you’ve seen over the course of these posts, design is a processmdash;and a constantly evolving one at that. We have spent the past couple of weeks combing through feedback from Design Museum Boston, a general audience, and from all of you. Thank you all. You’ve been an integral part of helping us determine the next part of the process./p

pSo where are we now? br /

pCreativity doesn’t really fit within a billable hours, 9-5 workday model. But as designers, applying creativity in practical ways, we’re constantly tinkering with this conundrum, trying to find the best ways to fit inspiration into efficient and productive structures. One of these structures is working within team-based conditions, a model that many design agencies have jumped on. br /
