Ballista Magazine, LLC

ballista magazine was founded as a venue for emerging talent to showcase themselves in their respective design industries. focusing on a hallmark of the design profession, competitions, ballista magazine is a platform showcasing young firms and designers with hopes of bridging the gap between the industry and young professionals. in short, ballista is seeking to re-expose the forgotten “middle” men and women of the design world. the mission of ballista magazine is simple: to revolutionize the idea of the design competition. by competing not for a commissioned project but a personal showcase of talents (and cash, of course), ballista magazine rewards concept instead of affiliation. too much great design is being overlooked; our goal is to excavate these hidden gems of the design world… we spent a lot of time on that metaphor, so hopefully it is appreciated.
