Art Style Magazine offers open-access publications – i.e., they can be
read online for free. We also remind you that the printed version is another option.
Print version:

We provide a high definition file so that readers can download, order, and pay for their print in the print shop of their choice. However, we know that design must extend beyond the product itself and respond to the environment, saving and reusing energy and recycling materials (in our case, paper), thus respecting the principles of sustainable development. In this sense, our goal is to be more conscious of initiatives focused on products rationalized and optimized for low-energy cost or renewable energy and use renewable and environmentally friendly materials. Therefore, print your copy in an ecologically conscious way!
