It seems only yesterday that I was celebrating Wallpaper’s tenth anniversary (W*92) with its unique team. At nearly 500 pages, that issue was more sculpture than magazine. Navigating the trickiest of schedules, the partnerships of the world’s most famous fashion designers and their favourite architects were documented. From Giorgio Armani and Tadao Ando to Karl Lagerfeld and Zaha Hadid (overleaf ), this story was an international, cross-disciplinary celebration of the power of encounters between diverse people and perspectives. Exactly the enduring quality that always keeps me coming back.
