  • Part of It's Nice That Issue #2

  This week has been a busy one with getting things ready for our second publication. We conducted our first interviews with Peter Funch, Boo Ritson and Rafaël Rozendaal, all of which threw up some great conversation and will give a real insight into their practices. Our inboxes have also been filling up with work from Valero Doval, Mimi Leung, Matt Siber, Jen Stark, Troika, Wallzo, Li Wei and we have read the drafts of some intriguing features from Fred Butler and Matt Hawkins. Pictured is a still from one of our interviewees Rafaël Rozendaal’s incredible site, archiving all of his domains, which we found out today is are very much artworks in their own right.

  Another busy week collating the content for Issue #2, and some lovely stuff to keep you abreast of. We interviewed the fantastic Wilfrid Wood at his studio (pictured), spoke to Michael Gillette in San Francisco via the power of Skype and ventured up to North London to have a look (and listen) to Airside founder and one-half of Lemon Jelly, Fred Deakin’s record collection. As well as work coming in from the likes of Noma Bar, Barnaby Barford, Brock Davis, Mother London and Dominic Wilcox.

  All coming together very nicely, pre-order is available now.

  The second issue of the magazine is coming together before it goes to print at the start of September. This week we saw drafts of Siggi Eggertssons contributors portraits, Molly Young sent through her piece for the introduction and the final images for the work section came through from the likes of Adam Simpson, Kate MccGwire, Jane Stockdale and Sam Messenger.

  That just leaves two interviews and the final tweaks to the design, next week we’ll release the the full line up and as always there will be various updates on our Twitter and Facebook.

  Another busy week has been spent in the studio and the finishing touches are being put to Issue #2. A full line-up and an exclusive pre-order print for anyone who orders a copy before the 1st of October will be announced next week. In the meantime here’s a little sneak preview of a photo being taken for George Hardie’s feature – a brilliant ‘conversation’ about rulers and his expansive collection of said item of stationary.

  This week we will be at Portobello Dock as part of ‘The Dock’ exhibition during London Design Week. We are using our space in the stuning White House to give a week-long exclusive preview of our second publication.

  One of us will be in the space all week and there’s lots of other fantastic work on show so please pop in and say hello if you’re in the area. If you can’t make it down during the day there’s a late night public opening on Tuesday until 8pm. Also check out the flickr set documenting the set up, and we’ll be adding to it during the week.
