Finally, some decent magazine in the local indsutry has arrived.
Monday Magazine is a new publication for young urban professionals that covers corporate culture, consumerism and lifestyle.
Now on their second issue, Monday magazine did not fail its readers for having an equally powerful and very controversial cover(s). For their pilot issue, they did four covers and now trimmed down to two, but still having that same very strong impact.
"Well, you have to see it's cutting-edge design which our EIC pain-strickenly obsessed with to make it perfect. And when I say obsessed i mean the same definition as Merriam-Webster has. Every kerning and spacing are calculated, rivers are eliminated and every paragraphs and lines are balanced and measured!" - Bonnapart Galeng, Associate Editor
I personally saw the pilot issue and I must agree with Bonn. Knowing their EIC, Mr. Ric Gindap, I know that he wouldn't allow even a single wrong spacing. Perfectionist much? Well, he's a genius. lol.
An almost 300-page magazine, Monday is a great read (substance plus not-painful-to-the-eyes visuals) for someone with style, sophisticated taste and living today's modern lifestyle. Here's a sneak peak of their second issue.
