Description

Sometimes, the most exciting paths are found where you least expect them: in detours, disruptions, quiet moments, and consciously chosen empty spaces. The magazine AKT Issue VI from New Mags is dedicated to precisely these in-between spaces – the kind of creativity that isn't linear, but rather emerges through errors, traces, materiality, and patience.

Among others, the magazine accompanies Studio KO, for whom humanity is revealed precisely in these imperfect textures – in deviations, remnants, and coincidences. Designer Vincenzo De Cotiis views patina and aged surfaces as traces that carry stories and are shaped over time. AKT VI embraces these perspectives and unfolds a multi-faceted journey through architecture, spaces, and ways of thinking.

Along this path, the magazine visits architectural firms such as Nidus, Danielle Siggerud, or Arnout De Sutter and delves into their methods, questions, and creative processes. It opens doors to a Parisian apartment by Nóbrega Borghmans, a secluded country house by Andy Kerstens, and accompanies Vincent Van Duysen to Comporta – amidst sand, shadows, and sea.

Further chapters lead to Morocco to Leopold Banchini's off-grid living space made of rammed earth and to Switzerland, to the Museum La Congiunta, shaped by Hans Josephsohn and Peter Märkli – spaces that protect, define, and at the same time ground through their quiet austerity.

The magazine also touches on very personal levels: Valentin Loellmann's search for security, Micha van Dinther's quiet pilgrimage to the Swedish monastery of Mariavall, or the subtle power of Pierre Culot's ceramics, on which Nicolas Schuybroek reflects. Music, body, and expression are given space when Kim Peers – musician and model – fills stages and in-between worlds with an almost ethereal presence.

As usual, New Mags combines aesthetic depth with a calm, powerful design. AKT VI invites you to consciously surrender to uncertainty, doubt, and quiet moments – to where creativity often truly begins.

A magazine for all who wish to experience architecture, emotion, and process in all their complexity.
