Hessian Magazine

The Hessian Magazine calls itself 'a sustainable fashion magazine without the unrealistic expectations'.

In terms of sustainability, the magazine takes a fresh approach on green living by avoiding any 'environmentalist stereotypes', and instead opting for a philosophy 'subtle sustainability'. This is a lifestyle many people can attune to, as it promotes an eco-friendly approach to everything you do, without making dramatic changes to your routine. In other words, a somewhat more realistic, achievable goal of green living that everyone can aim for. 

When you open a copy of the quarterly Hessian Magazine, you'll notice the content is a little different too. As a fashion magazine, many people will uphold the images in the pictures as a reflection of society, which is why the managers insist on all models in beauty and fashion editorials must be as natural as possible - this means no airbrushing, spot-touching or other manipulations. With a far more realistic beauty ideal, it's no wonder many people are crazy about the morals and philosophy of this quirky and unique mag. 

PrintTogether got involved to print the magazine recently - with environmentally friendly printing of course.

Using 100 per cent post-consumer recycled paper and vegetable based inks, the 350gsm EcoStar paper and clean green printing processes show how any company can choose eco-friendly options in their work.

Even the design of the front page reflects the philosophies of the magazine. The logo takes centre stage, and is reflected through the use of natural photography with a horizon line cutting across the image. Bright blue dominates the page, while a bare back incorporates a natural human beauty into the vista of the natural landscape. With such a clean, natural design, the cover encompasses the sustainable and realistic ideals of Hessian Magazine.
