Call for Entries: Slanted Magazine #48—Seoul

We are excited to announce an open call for submissions for Slanted Magazine #48 Seoul, dedicated to exploring the vibrant and diverse design scene in Seoul and across South Korea. The issue will highlight the work of creatives from Seoul, other cities in South Korea, as well as those based abroad, showcasing a range of contemporary design practices and perspectives that shape the cultural landscape of South Korea today.

From graphic design, typography, and visual communication to architecture, digital design, and product design, we are looking for exceptional work that reflects the dynamic creative energy of the region. Whether it’s innovative branding projects, experimental design practices, or impactful visual storytelling, we want to see the work that is driving the conversation in South Korea’s design community. We also welcome perspectives that explore the cultural forces shaping contemporary design in Seoul—from music and pop culture, including the global influence of K-pop, to technology, fashion, and urban culture. We encourage submissions from both emerging and established designers.

Graphic designers, illustrators, journalists, authors, and artists are encouraged to submit their work along with a statement or quote explaining their work via the online form. Text submissions in the form of essays and articles on cultural and creative topics related to Seoul are also welcome. Please send an email with your idea to [email protected].

After the submission deadline, all contributions will be carefully reviewed and curated. If your work is selected, we will contact you. Please bear with us as we take the time to thoroughly evaluate each submission and make a thoughtful decision. Selected contributors will receive a discount code by email to order a copy upon release.
