It is important to stay on top of news in one s profession. Design magazines still offer us a most convenient insight into the newest flows and events while often providing us with a valuable piece of reading. Therefore, we wanted to know how often you buy deign magazines.
According to your answers, design magazines are either too expensive or not of enough interest for most of you to buy them on a regular basis.
