Sappi: Consistency Intensified
Consistency, whatever the weight and surface, is the theme of Sappi's latest promotional campaign for its Magno range of premium woodfree coated sheets. "We have continued to build on Magno's reputation for consistency and reliability across the grammage range by improving the surface quality of our board weights, so printers, designers and end users only need to use one brand to match text and cover for their uniquely special job," says Magno Business Manager Margaret Baker.

New ezine launched: Design Philosophy Politics
Design Philosophy Politics is a new ezine companion to Design Philosophy Papers, featuring short, hard-edged articles on design, the unsustainable and sustainment. Issue 1 focuses on why we need 'the political' rather than politics; an interview with Islamic thinker, activist and writer Ziauddin Sardar; articles on the politics of everyday stuff: laundromats, plastic chairs, a steel garden, and an unsustainable living room.

Management by Design
by Richard Farson
Have you ever noticed the difference between a meeting held at a long rectangular table and one held at a round table? The time spent, the agenda, and the participants may be exactly the same, but the meetings are completely different. The discussion at the round table is more informal, the leadership is shared, the communication more personal.
