Friday, May 2nd, 2008MI CASA magazine launches with the inaugural issue available April 2008
Friday, May 2nd, 2008
(April 2, 2008) Quarterly for the style-savvy, design conscious individual, MI CASA will bridge the gap between high fashion magazines and interior design bringing interesting and unique editorial to the people who want to read it.
The concept for MI CASA is one of breaking the mould. The idea behind it is of multiple facets, being able to fit into a style but without a label, and above all, being different. A magazine with pages devoted to products, design inspiration and local designers, MI CASA explores the idea that an interiors/design magazine doesn’t just have to include pictures of other people’s houses. MI CASA aims to achieves a level or normality while still taking it’s readers out of their comfort zone.
MI CASA is one of very few oversized design magazines, a format usually reserved for the very high fashion magazines. Inside, readers can enjoy vibrant colour, large layouts, and high quality matt finished paper that enhances the design spreads, relevant interviews, and specially designed photography editorials. Part interiors, part design, part art, part fashion, the magazine has a very natural quality to it.
We will spark new ideas by speaking with and featuring designers that are trying to do something completely new and different. MI CASA is a real life magazine and can be read by many. It’s a peculiar idea, giving away a high quality design magazine for FREE, but there is a lot to take in from a lot of different types of people, and with no cover price we aim to infect as many people as possible with the design bug!
