Nordic Quarters is a new digital publication launched by Habitare Pro, Finland’s largest design trade fair. Published digitally in English, it features the most important architecture and design stories from Finland, the Nordics, and the Baltics through people, products, and spaces, whilst also offering current design highlights from around the world. Our publication is subscribed to by and targeted to the professional architecture and design industry, each quarter with over 35,000 readers.
By combining a top seasoned editor with a rich and active background in design journalism covering global design stories and a passionate creative who lives and breathes design and events, a publication covering the best that the Nordic region has to offer was born.
Each quarterly issue will be collated into one publication just before the design fair Habitare opens each September. The first issue of the year is released following the announcement of the new Habitare theme in December.
Finland and the Nordics are a hub of architecture and design inspiration, and our Nordic Quarters publication is an expression of the best that the region has to offer to a wider audience. Our aim is simple: to be the source of the most interesting, relevant, and up-to-date design publication coming out of the Nordics.
We have a large and growing Habitare Pro subscriber list, with an engaged audience. We offer advertising in a variety of formats across our quarterly digital publication. A desktop issue (published 3 times a year) and in our collated digital magazine published just before the Habitare fair, to give you the widest possible opportunity to target our audience on a global or local level (36,000 + subscribers).
