- What home and garden magazine would be complete without a New Products section? Ours is titled Stuff We Love. This was probably the hardest section of the magazine to work out and I think the reason for that is because I was working to a concept I already had and it wasn't fitting the concept. I wanted the modular approach like we've used on the cover, like we used on the Contents and in fact, I hauled a lot of the material I had used on the Contents pages over to begin my work on this one. So, you've already seen some of this. We're stacked in squares or double squares or triple squares, copy is inside a square, some copy is outside a square. This is a case where rather than working free form, I did give myself a grid, in this case, it's a five-column grid, all the way to the center gutter of the spread and I have only two points between each column. Those two points are going to give me a white line of separation between each of these products but I could tell pretty early on that…
