ANNOUNCEMENT / This year marks the tenth anniversary of Design Anthology and what a journey it's been. From its origins as founder Suzy Annetta‘s design blog and the inaugural print issue in 2014, the magazine has grown into a multi-platform media brand that encompasses the flagship biannual print publication, storytelling across an array of digital platforms, in-person experiences and industry-leading programmes such as The Design Anthology Awards

On our tenth anniversary, we also reflect on the future of the brand, and it is with pride that we announce the appointment of not one but two new editors-in-chief to steer the magazine into its next decade

Simone Schultz and Jeremy Smart have been on the masthead for more than half of the magazine’s life and we are excited to usher in a new era for Design Anthology under their leadership as co-editors-in-chief

Suzy Annetta will step into her new role as publisher, continuing to be involved in the life of the magazine, as well as embarking on new projects and initiatives as group curatorial director
