Confessions Of An Interior Designer: What’s Next For NFDI Style?
Five years ago, we launched our lookbook as an extension of our brand, a creative outlet and place where inspiration gathers. It has grown to more than we could have imagined. We’ve contemplated a rebrand for sometime and have been hard at work behind the scenes reinventing our beloved NFDI Style magazine. With the official relaunch date fast approaching, we can’t help but reflect on the last 5 years of seasonal issues. From our humble beginnings of a 16 page lookbook, to a full-fledged digital magazine, we’re excited to share the next chapter with you!
NFDI style began as a lookbook, with our first ever, launch issue. Featuring, our newly (at the time) renovated studio space, team introductions, and a Pantone colour story.
We receive many positive reviews from our launch issue and we were excited to continue on this journey. Over time, the consistent brewing of ideas created longer magazines.
What started as 16 pages has now expanded to 38 throughout the course of the year!
We’ve found our stride! The magazine is picking up steam and we’ve nailed down a formula for font selections, and overall layout aesthetics.
Our issues get progressively longer and longer, peaking at 48 pages with our Fall issue!
We love putting each issue together. With new content ideas in the works, every stage of the magazine process is one we delight in!
Well, it's official! We’ve put out our longest magazine issue to date! A whopping 84 pages! We’ve come a long way!
With the completion of Nyla’s own home renovation, our Summer issue showcases the transformation journey from before to after.
We’ve got some new ideas in mind for layouts, some that push our creative juices away from our previously mentioned “formula”. We try our hand at a new aesthetic, having fun with font selections and overall layout designs.
A travel feature debuts in our Winter 2021 issue, showcasing the most charming Bragg Creek cabin.
Nyla celebrates 20 years in business! Woohoo!! Our Winter 2022 issue reflecting back on 20 years in the industry, and Nyla’s business journey.
With big changes in store for our office, we make the hard decision to forgo a Fall issue for this year.
Our best year yet! NFDI Style is well-loved, delighting in all kinds of inspiration! From one to the next, each issue surpasses the one previous!
We can’t believe our eyes when we look at the page count. Our Spring 2023 issue is 96 pages in length!! Featuring a bungalow renovation and a travel guide to London, this issue is FULL of inspired content!
With the growth of NFDI Style, we’re feeling the tug to shift, what is now a magazine, and hone in on a new perspective, new vibe, and a new name!
We start brainstorming ideas for this new magazine, something that embodies the overall aesthetic and vibe.
The name has been set and encapsulates the feeling we’re hoping to exude through each page. We’ve been putting pen to paper with vision boards creating the foundation for the heart and soul of the magazine.
With a new name, vision and aesthetic in the works, we eagerly count down the days until we officially relaunch…
What’s in store for NFDI Style in 2024? You’ll have to wait and see! Don’t worry, you won’t be waiting long….
