Ottagono
design and architecture magazine
Created by eight important Italian producers
who wanted to promote high quality in industrial
design, the architecture and design magazine
Ottagono through the performing of its activity
becomes an international product of editorial
design. Issued to subscribers in sixty-five
countries worldwide, it is also sold in news
agencies.
The magazine aims to diffuse information about
technical and stylistic design aspects while
making a special effort to avoid creating
or promoting trends that may result in a distorted
representation of the themes dealt with. That
is a risk which, as a mass-media tool, even
an architecture and design magazine is exposed
to.
Directed by the philosopher, historians, and
theorist Aldo Colonetti, scientific director
of the Istituto Europeo del Design of Rome
(the capital of Italy), Milan, Turin, Madrid
(the capital of Spain), and Barcellona, the
magazine Ottagono consists on a vast introductive
part inclusive of every applicative design
field, in-depth sections, special reportages,
events, novelties, and other informational
material articulated around countless design
issues or design related themes.
The subjects that the magazine deals with
include news about the most important Italian
or international design schools, fair and
exhibition reportages, and plenty of information
about the architectural world.
