BuildingGreen is a content collaborator with McGraw-Hill for GreenSource magazine, the member publication of the USGBC. Our own Nadav Malin is its Executive Editor; I'm the Products Editor. Tristan Korthals Altes and Jessica Boehland are also on the masthead. GreenSource recently won an Ozzie award recognizing its excellence in editorial content and design, chosen from a field of almost 3,000 publications. We couldn't be prouder. The current issue of Folio ("the magazine for magazine management") features Jane Kolleeny, the Managing Editor of GreenSource, and Mark Kelly, its Publishing Director, on the cover. Inside, a nice profile. Excerpted:
The key to GreenSource magazine's design success appears to be a strong sense of balance between complex, sophisticated data, and an accessible, quick and easy-to-read format. "We're unlike many design publications with pretty pictures. We have real data to present," says editor Robert Ivy. "But we're not like a textbook. It's really easy to present a complex volume of information in words, in a gray and boring manner. But we try to translate complex ideas into an immediately apparent, attractive form to tell the story quickly."
Congratulations to everyone!
