Hasta La Ideas

Who’s following in the footsteps of past Wallpaper* cover designers such as Karl Lagerfeld, Philippe Starck, and Anish Kapoor? You. The magazine is offering readers the opportunity to design their own unique cover of the August issue, which will be devoted to the handmade. It’s as easy as registering here before May 17 to gain access (later this month) to the online cover-making application, a virtual buffet of images, graphics, and patterns contributed by the likes of James Joyce, Nigel Robinson, and Anthony Burrill. After you’ve scaled, rotated, colored, and tweaked to your heart’s delight on the front, turn your attention to the back cover, where media partner Rolex is offering nine ad options. Once you’ve finished your stint as guest art director, Wallpaper* will get to work realizing your vision. Subscribers will receive their customized issues in early July. No subscription? No problem. Register to learn how you can order a single bespoke issue. Meanwhile, we’re just as excited about what will be between the covers of the August Wallpaper*: recently commissioned design projects that were exhibited in the Brioni house at last month’s Milan Furniture Fair.
