Our whole mint condition collection is on ebay. We purchased every issue as they were printed starting back in 99″. 🙂

Stored them in our controlled art room since. Didn’t think they would be of value, just liked them.

Take a look

Denise, Did you sell these issues on ebay? If not let’s discuss! I’ll send you my cell number if I hear back from you. Thanks, fellow NEST lover.

Hello! Re: Nest Magazine…. I have issues #1 through #6 that I am willing to sell. If you are interested to buy, (or know of someone who is) please let me know! I am going to put them on ebay but would rather sell privately. They are all in good, to very good, condition. Issue #2 is a little scuffed up (as the cover is brown and it shows the scuffs more) and Issue #6 has a slight crease in the bottom right of the cover. Issue #3 has the original cloth band. Issue #1 is pristine. I would ship from Portland, Or
Thanks – love your blog!

Dear Ouno,
Today I photographed all Nest Magazine covers – at least the ones I own. I’m still looking for back issues…
You might want to have the covers – they can be seen and used via my Flickr account:

Since magazines in general are now almost defunct, I will opine that NEST is the single greatest design piece in the history of magazines. Its adoption and devotion to a theme for each issue, its perfection of placement of print elements and in particular the placement of die cuts relative to the photography, was without comparison anywhere. Why would anyone cut a tiny cross into the very center of the magazine, incorporating the void into each and every page, and do it perfectly? Because they could.

The founder and editors seemed to be perfectly aware that they were doomed from the start. Their demand for artistic and mechanical perfection was too expensive to support through the cover and subscription price. Their flagrant rejection (contempt?) of the glossy shelter magazine norm made it unlikely they would gather advertiser sponsorship. I have no idea why or how they undertook this madness but I’m glad they did. Sadly, I kept none of my copies but I’m glad others did.

In reply to Leonard Abbott.

Leonard, my sister finally brought me the six you sent me. They’re in great condition – thanks! I might be interested in 17 and 18… let me think.
