NO INTERNATIONAL #1

International edition of Norwegian lifestyle magazine dedicated to a diversity of topics such as design (product, graphic, fashion, etc), contemporary art, lifestyle, music, entertainment, sports, beauty, travel and social issues. The magazine is particularily dedicated to creativity, presenting Norwegian and international figures who are important to their field. The magazine has a small staff at its core, but has brilliant contributors from Norway and abroad. This loose structure brings a varied and vibrant aspect to the magazine and helps keep it fresh. We believe that the mix of great photography, the magazine’s constantly evolving design and the diversity of topics work together to create a magazine that reflects Norwegian culture in an international context.
