From Midori Housing London, this is the stack.
30 minutes of print industry analysis and I am Fernando Gustava Sheku.
And as the Paris Olympics are still going strong, it was great speaking in the studio with renowned French creative director and entrepreneur Yorgo Tlupas.
He's also very much a magazine man.
He headed gq, France, Intersection, Liberation and Les Jupe Tible and launched an art directed Vanity Fair France.
Flupas is a logotype expert and worked in commercial campaigns with brands from Loro Piana to Omega or visual identities of places such as My Zonga's book.
Let's hear it from Yorgo who also spoke about a selection of objects from his Greek cafe in Paris, Yorgaki Cafe, which will be at a special exhibition et Les Bon Marche at the end of August.
Sometimes when I say that I work in print, some kids look at me and think I'm from a different century.
I'm actually from a different century.
I was born in 1974.
But I do think that there's still a room for print.
And I mean, a while back someone told me, you know what, print is the new luxury.
In a way, I think it's very much relevant today because the digital flow of information disappears.
Really, it doesn't necessarily disappear, but it could disappear.
You know, the kind of a massive technological bug and all your archives of everything you've posted for years disappears.
Your cloud could disappear.
