All magazine articles are displayed at www.vitra.com/magazine. Magazine articles communicate content which remains relevant indefinitely, in contrast to news articles, which communicate information which is relevant for a limited period of time and will become outdated. Magazine articles tell the story of Vitra and the related design culture, including Vitra history, company philosophy, designers, friends and associates, quality, products, and architecture. Magazine articles range from short, amusing anecdotes to in-depth interviews.

Examples of magazine article subjects include:

• Additional / background information about:
   - Exhibitions in the Vitra Design Museum and elsewhere
   - Special initiatives (e.g. The Colour and Material Library, Rehberger Weg)
   - Product design/ development (e.g. Landi Chair, Stool Tool)
• Vitra anecdotes
• Interviews
• Guest contributions (e.g. adaptations from Freunde von Freunden)
• Discourses on the company philosophy of Vitra

To submit a magazine article, please use the following checklist as a guide to prepare a briefing.

Minimum requirements:
Example page #1 - a simple magazine article with only one image

Optional extras:
If additional content is available, we can make a more in-depth magazine article, like example page #2.

To create or update a webpage on vitra.com, we'll need a briefing from you. To save time and effort for everyone, please assemble as much content as possible, organize it, translate it, and proofread it before submitting the briefing. Let us know where images, downloads, and links should be placed in the text and include the Censhare IDs for images and dowload assets in the briefing. If you don't know where content should be uploaded into Censhare, ask us for a content folder and we will send you the Asset ID for your uploads. Besides images, texts and documents for download can also be uploaded to the content folder.
