About Frontier Magazine

Frontier Magazine shares big ideas about how stories shape our lives. Through essays, interviews, and links that explore brand, culture, and technology, we give people exciting new ways to think about places near and far.

I’m Paddy Harrington, a designer living in Toronto with a background in literature and architecture. I bring these experiences along with 20+ years working with global leading brand and organizations to share new and newly relevant ideas about the contours of the world. Frontier Magazine is published by Frontier, a design office I founded in 2014.

Frontier Magazine is free for all and is supported by patrons. We believe in an idea writer Tim Carmody articulated a few years ago as “unlocking the commons”: “the most economically powerful thing you can do is to buy something for your own enjoyment that also improves the world.” We hope that people who appreciate our efforts and have the means to support us will do so, knowing that this enables us to share our work with everyone.
