Manaròt nel nostro Secret Mag Club di giugno

Manaròt in our Secret Mag Club in June

Manaròt, the magazine we have selected for our June Secret, is a strange creature, who however lets himself be loved. Daughter of a territory that has shaped it, between Trentino and Alto Adige / Südtirol, it brings back in its pages with essential graphics all the cultural contaminations, hybridizations and creative chaos that only border areas know. Nicolò Tabarelli and Davide Gritti tell us about their editorial project, including funny anecdotes and literary forays.

Intervista ad Antonella Pescetto di Orlando

Interview with Antonella Pescetto from Orlando

If we were to make a game and describe Orlando magazine with just one adjective, surely this would be beauty. The pages of this multidisciplinary magazine with an Italian soul exude all the beauty that can be found in a work of art as well as in a good glass of wine, in an unusual reading or in a design suite. We interviewed Antonella to let us better tell her creature.

Barlume

Glimmer

To the question "what is Gleam?" We can answer you briefly that it is the photographer's bookzine Michele Arrabito, with stories by Giada Biaggi, Matteo Bianchi, Nicola Feninno and Ivan Carozzi.
But we also want to tell you that Barlume is a very particular editorial creature, the result of a carnal and somewhat mysterious passion that leads to being able to grasp beauty where others do not see it.
