It's hard to tell whether Above Magazine is new, or just under new management... either way the ambitious concept makes for an interesting first issue; it is an ecological publication with an eye on fashion, art, architecture etc. However, articles like the missing link between fashion and fish offer a unique slant, and it's even developed its own fonts to use less ink.
Apparently people were queueing up to collaborate, and some of the editorial (and commercial) imagery is spectacular (see above, shot of fish is previously featured Trent Parke), but I wonder if this will last beyond the maiden voyage, I get the feeling the concept might have been better suited to a book. Sustainability?
