Hello,
winter.
Every agency has a board. Ours lives in five cities at once - London, Prague, Zagreb, Kraków and Kyiv - and this magazine is where those cities meet on paper.
Issue 36 is a winter portrait: a red room, a story told in black and white, a postcard from Zagreb and a few things we would happily wear until spring.
We wanted pages that feel like our studio on a Monday morning: coffee, contact sheets, a lot of light. Turn slowly.

Five cities,
one board
One agency, five offices, one standard. A face from Kyiv opens a show in Prague; a London client finds her in Zagreb.
The red
room
Mila · Krakov
A red curtain, a black dress, one white bow. The cover of this issue was built from three things and a decision not to add a fourth.
Red is the oldest trick in fashion photography: it warms the skin, deepens every shadow and turns a studio corner into a stage. Against it, black stops being a colour and becomes a line.
The bow does the rest. It is the only white in the frame, so the eye lands there first and then travels up, to the face.
We shot it in one afternoon, with one light and a fan that nobody remembered to switch off.
Three things, and a decision not to add a fourth.
New
faces
Sofia · Prag
A test shoot, a walk session, a first portfolio. No shortcuts, no rush.
Mono
chrome
Take the colour away and only the essentials stay: a line of the jaw, the weight of a coat, the way someone stands in the wind. Black and white is the oldest test in the business - and still the most honest one.
The winter edit
01The shearling jacketWorn in, never worn out. Buy it once.
02The cream lace-up bootA light boot makes every dark coat look new.
03Amber lensesLow winter sun is still sun.
04Sculptural goldOne pair, no necklace.
Postcard
from Zagreb
Zagreb is a city you hear before you see: the blue trams ring their way down Ilica from early morning, and by nine the red umbrellas of the Dolac market are already open above the fruit stalls.
A funicular only sixty-six metres long - one of the shortest in the world - lifts you from the Lower Town to the Upper Town in about a minute. Coffee on Tkalčićeva comes after, outdoors, in any weather.
Backstage
Hair, make-up, the last fitting. Ten minutes before the first exit nobody speaks - everybody listens to the music.
The walk
Shoulders down, eyes on the horizon, steps on one line. The rest is rhythm - and a lot of practice in very real shoes.
Mila · Krakov
Red, again
Every few seasons someone announces that red lipstick is back. It never left. Line after colour, not before; blot once; leave everything else on the face alone.
Jessica · London
We believe in presence over perfection.
In models who choose their work.
In sets where everyone is safe.
In five cities that feel like one studio.
Born to be
seen?
We are always looking for new faces. Five photos, no portfolio needed.
