The app, entitled Case Studies, is free to download and launches with images curated by Wallpaper’s architecture, art, design, interiors, lifestyle and fashion teams. With a new photograph or video uploaded every day, this simple and beautifully executed app will build an invaluable and inspirational archive, say the publishers.
Developed in association with Hermès, the app has an additional gallery that neatly integrates the luxury brand’s presence providing additional visual content within the six themes.
Gord Ray, publishing director of Wallpaper*, says: “Many of Wallpaper’s readers work in the creative industries and this app is going to be an amazing resource for them as well as a visual pleasure. We’re delighted to be working with Hermès to deliver such a stunning showcase of the Wallpaper* brand.”
Victoria Ewen, creative communications director of Hermès, adds: “Hermès is delighted to be associated with this new expression for Wallpaper*. For us a partnership between the iPad, Wallpaper*, which has always been at the forefront of communicating design, and Hermès, a family house that is founded in tradition but a tradition which was always based on the pursuit of the latest and finest developments in craftsmanship and design, is a perfect marriage.”
Case Studies is Wallpaper’s second iPad app and follows hot on the heels of The Directors’ Cut. The app launches as the title celebrates another digital high, with its number of Twitter followers passing the quarter of a million mark.
The Case Studies iPad app was built by Portable Pixels.
