As you know, a magazine is a mobile container, like the mind. It is looking further afield, always searching for new horizons, and it connects them in a flash, with the immediacy of a click
M Magazine is a teenager, celebrating 15 years since it was re-born, vibrant, eager for new discoveries and encounters. In design, in architecture, in fashion, in culture in all its forms, both commercial and artistic.
M Magazine is an English language editorial project, featuring an elegant layout, from its fonts to its solid colour backgrounds, that develops the Molteni Group’s global themes and activities as regards the main international current events, also re-proposing important documents from the company’s Archives to its readers’ attention.
M Magazine creates continual intersections between the past, present and strategic future of the Molteni Group’s brands enjoying cooperation with leading figures in international design and architecture.
The magazine is enriched with new content every month, organized according to topics and columns: people, product and interior design, the cities and places involved, historic archive documents, books and exhibitions round the world and even photographic portfolios. An immediate and ever-developing showcase, with reflections, news and in-depth articles for the design and architecture community.
M&C 14 - 2020
M Magazine is closely related to the paper magazine, which comes out once a year. If the online version is the place for current affairs and for faster and more multimedia communications, the paper magazine is one for reflection, with a careful and insightful selection, like a monograph, of the subjects that have characterized the life of the Molteni Group. Over the year, the online magazine will share articles and themes that have appeared in the paper version, also offering unpublished content or content narrated in another way, acting as the collector of communications around the Group.
Observing things and remembering. This dual concept holds the key to understanding the ties between Aldo Rossi and design.
The story of M&C, the magazine produced by the Molteni Group, is a long one. When it was first distributed at the end of the 1980s, it was called simply Il Giornalone [“Large Newspaper”]
It was 1968, the year of great and definitive events that left their mark on consciences, cultures, populations, lifestyles, and consumer habits.
