Fig Magazine, a beautiful embodiment of community-driven print media, stands as a testament to the power of collaboration and the impact of meaningful design. In this episode, we meet Deborah Brandt, the founder of Fig Industries in Lancaster, PA, and her printing partner Sam Kirchner from The Standard Group. They share how their collaboration brings a wow factor to each edition, and how the move to uncoated paper from Domtar elevated the look and feel of this unique city guide.
