UK Design Magazines
Amazon.co.uk have recently started a
magazine subscription section on their website.
The USA based Amazon.com have had this section on their website for a longer period of time and it is more popular than the UK based one.
What Amazon tend to do is roll-out new ideas first in the US and then the UK - so it takes time for momentum to build.
Amazon.co.uk have a small but growing number of UK design magazines which you can order online and
have delivered to your home. Please note that this is a new service - our advice is to read the reviews first.
From the few reviews we have read so far we would recommend that you consider using one of the
more specialised magazine websites that we have listed below.

The Design Process
The design process starts with discovery. This means discovering a niche market or an opportunity or possibility for making something. The next step is to define by thinking, discussing, or more formally by writing down, a way to accomplish a task or reach a goal that will mean something can been achieved by performing some action. The next step is to build or develop a solution. Lastly, delivery is when the finished design has reached its intended state of completion and the person for whom the design was commissioned or created accepts the work.

Art vs. Design
Art is a process of capturing human senses and emotions and expressing this in a physical medium such as paint or sculpture. Design is the process of planning to make something. Art and design are similar but separate concepts. Art is more creative than design. Design is more of a formal process and art perhaps is more creative. Here are links to art and design magazines. Some are available for download, others are to order by subscription. The Magazine Group have a wide variety of magazines for many interests - see their sections on art magazines and design magazines for many more magazines.
