Founded in 1991 by the first generation of design students, Azimuts celebrates its thirtieth anniversary in 2021. To celebrate this anniversary, a feat among French and international design research journals, the CyDRe team proceeded to a collection, a reading by many. Proposing a short selection of articles published during the past decade (36-50), Azimuts has also translated some of them proposed in one language when first published, in order to offer a fully bilingual content. These republications, carefully chosen by these collectors, are completed by a free iconographic navigation in the corpus of the previous version of Azimuts from numbers 1 to 35.
Azimuts is a design research journal founded in 1991 by the student-researchers of the post-graduate program of the École supérieure d'art et design de Saint-Étienne. A unique publication in the design editorial landscape, the journal is a place for reflection, exchange, and criticism on the issues of contemporary design and art, as well as a field for experimentation and graphic and typographic research. Azimuts magazine gathers the points of view of personalities from the world of design, culture and research in general. The issues are organized around thematic dossiers on design and, more generally, on material culture or its criticism. The "Varia" section welcomes contributions that are not part of the dossier, and the "Anthology" section allows readers to discover or rediscover texts and documents that are difficult to access (out of print or never translated into French). The "Reviews" section is a space for free criticism of current research and publications on design in the field.
