Bricks from the Kiln 1

17 x 23cm good paperback magazine. Each body of content is a piece of a larger structure as the editors explain in their Afterword (an inside cover fold out, above), every essay, photograph or typographic flair a part of a sum .If the magazine were an actual building, it would be tall, brown, looming and old, there d be a lot of writing scrawled on the walls and plants would be growing through the windows. But upstairs, there d also be a shimmering, modern and geometric glass addition to the structure. This is because Bricks from the Kiln contains both classic essays that look at the stories in the bricks and sturdy pieces of design that are already around us - Iain Sinclair s 1970s Westerings (above) is a compilation of notes from time spent journeying through the landscape of the West Country, for example - but it also looks at contemporary structures and projects too.
