Dear Esteemed Readers,
Warm greetings to all!
September felt like motion itself. Airports, shows, the endless rhythm of creativity in transit. Airframe captured that restlessness, that hunger to move and make. Then October arrived, slower, heavier, charged. The air turned thoughtful.
This month, we enter Carbon Commons, a space where creation and responsibility meet in real time. With COP30 in São Paulo setting the global rhythm, the conversation deepens into how design, fashion, and art respond when the atmosphere becomes a stakeholder.
The cover sets the tone before words do. A Brazilian model, strong and grounded, stands amid a composition of texture and tension. Her carbon mask speaks for her—a story of a world negotiating beauty, identity, and burden. It’s as much a portrait as it is a question: what does progress look like when the air we breathe becomes currency?
Inside the digital issue, the stories echo that pulse. April Branch explores how carbon is no longer just an element but a design material. Manuela Pirola writes from Milan about regeneration and the art of renewal. Linda Hendricks dissects the economy of sustainability, revealing how luxury is reshaping its value systems. Sonia Haboub examines the edge where wellness meets fatigue, while Mova Wonen NL translates stillness into space and texture. And there’s more waiting within : ideas, visuals, and voices that carry weight and imagination in equal measure.
We also welcome Davina Adnani, our newest contributor in London. She joined us last month and hasn’t slowed since. Her sharp storytelling and modern sensibility have already added new depth to Gazetta, from covering London Fashion Week to shaping upcoming stories that mirror her instinct for nuance and energy.
This issue isn’t about answers. It’s about presence. About pausing to see how luxury, climate, and culture now orbit one another. The world is rethinking what it values—and so are we.
Until the next current, breathe it in. The air is changing, and so are we.
