Hello and welcome to the Stack.
On today's show, I speak with Sam Cochran, Global Features director for AD Plus, Megan Ray Shurtler.
Tell us how to run a magazine and we speak with Simon Loverman from Der Grief.
Enjoy the show.
From Midori Housing London, this is the stack.
30 minutes of print industry analysis.
And I am Fernando Gustavashieko.
We start the show talking with Sam Cochran, global features director for ad on one of their most important issues of the year, featuring the AD100 list with the designers that you have to know, from newcomers to all time legends.
Sam explains to me the process of curation for the list and more about ad plans for 2025.
The AD100 is our sort of marquee editorial franchise.
It is 100 names, the top designers and architects and landscape architects and designers working in the field today.
We think of it as the names you need to know now.
The people who have really been sort of steering the larger design industry conversations for the past 12 months.
And it's a list that is very meaningful, obviously to the recipients, but also to the industry at large.
People look to this list to decide who they're going to work with in the months and years ahead.
And what is the process of compiling that?
Because of course there are a lot of studios and designers from New York, Paris, but you also kind of broaden out a little bit.
I saw entries from places like Mexico City.
How important is that?
Because it must be quite a lot of research for doing the list.
