nest was a funky, quirky, over-the-top Interior Design magazine that lasted less than three years. The stories were unusual and interesting, the design exquisite, and printed on premium quality paper (which is often the first place a publisher will cut costs).
It's inspiring to see a publication that took risks with every issue.
A few of the risks were borderline disastrous. (Note the scorched crosshair in the center of the image on the right.) Imagine the stench that filled the air as the overheated die-cutting machine continued to churn, pages smoldering, and pressmen sweating over meeting the fulfillment deadline.
I often drool (note to Stephanie: figuratively, that is) over the design opportunity afforded to the art director and designers of nest. How refeshing it would be to hear the editor insist that you take more risks and have more fun! Ahhhhhhhhh...
