PIN–UP XXL. The Big Design Issue. Design is often reduced to surface, function, or price tag. But how do we choose which objects deserve space? What resonates with you and the people you share that space with? What challenges our ideas of taste, of design’s role in the world? The PIN–UP XXL issue is not just supersized — almost double the size of a regular PIN–UP — it is also an expansion of how we approach design. Think big! Issue out April 15, 2025.
