A portrait of ASPEN, the original magazine in a box. by Emily King
032C Issue #6 — Winter 2003/2004 / Page No. 82 - 8
Aspen functioned on the principle of family resemblance rather than that of uniformity: there is enough in common between issues for them to be
understood as part of the same body of work, but each issue is very different
from all the others.
Emily King is a London-based author, curator, and design critic
